| This image of the planetary nebula SuWt 2 reveals a bright ring-like structure encircling a bright central star. The central star is actually a close binary system where two stars completely circle each other every five days. The interaction of these stars and the more massive star that sheds material to create the nebula formed the ring structure. The burned-out core of the massive companion has yet to be found inside the nebula. The nebula is located 6,500 light-years from Earth in the direction of the constellation Centaurus. This color image was taken on Jan. 31, 1995 with the National Science Foundation's 1.5-meter telescope at the Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory (CTIO) in Chile. CTIO is part of the National Optical Astronomy Observatory, which has its headquarters in Tucson, Ariz. |

| Cuban watchman Juan Gonzalez, smoking a cigar, gestures next to John Lennon statue in Havana Tuesday, June 3, 2008. Ever since thieves twice nicked the round-rimmed wire spectacles from the nose of Havana's bronze John Lenon statue shortly after it was unveiled in 2000, four retirees have worked rotating, 12-hour day and night shifts to ensure they don't go missing again. |
