TerlObar October 12, 2012 - 8:38am | Althought that's not completely true. There is still gas in the center but it's been ionzied and so doesn't show up completely in the filters used to make the image (glows at different wavelengths). However, there is less dust/gas in the middle than along the edges. Ad Astra Per Ardua!
