Hi and welcome @atoms.eu
Sadly, that is not a plantary nebula, ,but rather a foreground star from our own galaxy 😃
Something went wrong with the imaging and this artifact was the result, you can read more about artifacts in this thread

To add to what Capella05 wrote, please be sure to add a hashtag like #artifact or #poorqualityimage. As you can see from the zoomed out image, this whole field is bad, and should be removed from the database ASAP (to stop zooites wasting their time); adding hashtags like this helps get such fields removed quickly:

Actually, although it is helpful to hash tag the images, it is not necessary 😃
It is possible to pick up the bad images from the reports that get run against the data classified - but let us not get off topic, it will scare away the newbies 😃
