AI illustration of the real object
NICKNAME the mouth, or hand of godSIZE head about 1.5 light years

A dusty cloud with a glowing rim and a long tail, photographed at just the right angle to look like a monstrous mouth about to swallow a distant galaxy. The galaxy is safely millions of light years behind it. Radiation from nearby stars sculpts globules like this into comet shapes, and may squeeze their heads into new stars.
