"Eye" spiral nebula is blue


Helix Nebula (snail) is often called the "Eye of God" or "Eye of Sauron", and do not reject that this place looks like a cosmic eye, looks straight at us. On the new image, which combined the image transmitted from the telescope "Spitzer" and GALEX, the eye appears to us in a blue shade that complements the palette of gold, green and turquoise of the nebula, obtained previously by other observatories.
