Images of the nova V1674 Hercules – one of the fastest stellar explosions ever recorded. Images of the nova taken 2.2 days (left) and 3.2 days (center) after the explosion. The images reveal the formation of two separate, perpendicular streams of gas, as indicated by the green arrows. An artist's impression of the explosion is shown on the right.
