The Hammer Nebula, one of two nebula in the Preae Ain area, sits about 1000 Ly above the beaten path between The Bubble and Jaques' Station. Compared with its neighbor, The Chisel Nebula, Hammer shares a similar T-shaped pattern of purples, blues, and blacks. Unlike the smaller nebula above it, The Hammer Nebula is close to 115 LY across and contains a plethora of stars, most main sequence and capable of refueling.
The glowing purples and blues of the nebula serve as a stark contrast to the darker gases that give the nebula its hammer like appearance.
Approaching the nebula reveals it's true colors, a flash of brilliant blue and orange hues unseen in the distance, and thousands of stars many of which appear to hold gas and ammonia giants in their orbits.
