A FACT A DAY.. Distance and Age: The Ring Nebula is estimated to be located around 2,000 to 2,300 light-years away from Earth in the constellation Lyra. It has been a subject of scientific study for centuries, and astronomers have estimated its age to be around 8,000 to 10,000 years old. This makes it one of the youngest known planetary nebulae. Studying objects like the Ring Nebula helps astronomers understand the late stages of stellar evolution and gain insights into the fate of stars like our Sun in the distant future
