The dolphin depicted, the Pacific Whitesided dolphin, is one of the many species of dolphin that pass through Japanese waters every year and are inhumanely slaughtered for meat that is too poisonous to eat, it is so saturated with mercury.

In the bottom corner is the Medusa Nebula, which is often called the dolphin nebula because it resembles a leaping dolphin to some
