Giant star on the edge of destruction

Post by shoponhossaiassn »

Three galaxies in a vertical image. Top one is blue and vertical, and smaller than the other two. The middle galaxy is half-curved around the lower galaxy and by far the largest. It shows streaks of bright blue and red strings of dust. The lowest galaxy in the scene is a bright white orb, about one sixth of the size of the middle galaxy above it.

In June, the Hubble team joked about this image resembling a penguin protecting its egg.

The image, called colliding galaxy pair Arp 142, actually shows a close encounter between two galaxies.

This alluring image, called the Pillars of Creation, was created using a combination of data from Hubble and X-ray imaging from the Chandra X-ray Observatory.

It was taken in the Eagle Nebula, and features what is known as “elephant trunks” of interstellar gas and dust. The star-filled region of the Eagle Nebula is in the Serpens constellation, up to 7,000 light years from Earth.

While gaseous debris surrounding dying stars is often in telegram database circular form, this image, captured by Hubble, appears to show a rectangle shape surrounding one.


In this photo, you can see Hubble orbiting Earth.

The sun’s bright beams shine over the telescope as it orbits the cosmos to unravel mysteries.
