The famous Helix Nebula in ultraviolet from the GALEX mission. There's a version out there that includes infrared data from Spitzer, relegating the GALEX data merely to the blue channel. I think it deserves an image of its own, all by itself.

Description
English: The famous Helix Nebula in ultraviolet from the GALEX mission. There's a version out there that includes infrared data from Spitzer, relegating the GALEX data merely to the blue channel. I think it deserves an image of its own, all by itself. Of course, now I want to go dig around in Spitzer's archive...

Red: NUV (Near ultraviolet) Green: Pseudo (R+G 50/50) Blue: FUV (Far ultraviolet)

North is up.
