Paradoxical Nebula Firework

This space pyrotechnics and holography charge appears to defy the rules of space and time by creating a dramatic and unusual star nebula at the detonation point. This is peculiar but conceivably such a device could be used to signal a location or be used as a mapping aid. Still, strange and paradoxical as the appearance of a vast interstellar nebula inside a star system might be, the projected display is really a creation of some unknown pyrotechnician's art and skill... or is it?
