This edition of Useless Knowledge is very brief. I just stumbled across this while looking for my halloween pfp (shown below in the spoiler for future reference).
Apparently, there is a nebula that is referred to as "Pacman" because it looks like it is chomping its way across time and space (like Pac-Man eating all those little dots).
Within this nebula, new stars are forming. Some of these new stars are bigger than our sun. Eventually, the nebula will be gone as it is constantly eroding away due to the formation of these new stars and the high winds that are created by them.
Apparently in one image, it looks like the Pacman nebula has teeth!
Tbh, just read NASA's article on it if you want to know more about the scientific stuff that's going on inside of that nebula.
