    It legit looks like an AI image generator was told to generate a nebula that’s also a bat

      I feel like this has definitely been touched up.

        NASA always touches up their photographs to add color and contrast or else space would look very boring.

        I highly doubt NASA is in the business of doing that (and FWIW Snopes agrees with me).

            There’s a big difference between “touched up” as in, fix the contrast and adjust the color balance, versus “touched up” as in let’s make a nebula look like a bat. The first, me and Ricky are in agreement that they’re doing. The second, me and Snopes feel strongly that they’re not doing.

    Whoa. It looks like a bat. Not like the horse head nebula, which looks more like a headless human to me.
