Hubble recorded the IC 758 Galaxy, which over 20 years ago there was a strong explosion of a supernova – an event that changed the surrounding space.
The Khabble Space Telescope has created a wonderful image of the distant IC 758 Galaxy, located in the constellation Big Lear – 60 million light years from the ground.
According to the European Space Agency (ESA), in 1999, a powerful explosion of SN 199BG supernova was recorded in this space. The star “deadly climbing” took place in the last stage of the life of a massive star, which is greater than our day.
In the picture, the IC 758 looks calm – the blue spiral sleeves gently wrap the foggy center, and the pale yellow strip in the middle shines brightly. However, a star once exploded in the heart of this beauty, torn itself and changing the surrounding space.
ESA experts explain: the supernova explosion is not just the end of the star, but a phenomenon that affects the entire interstellar space around. Discarded layers of gas and dust “mix” the surrounding space may hinder the formation of new stars or, conversely, stimulate new starring star.
“Interstellar’s swing can spread and warm up to nearby gas clouds and prevent the formation of new stars or pushing them, causing the explosion of new stars. The discarded layers have also become components for new stars,” the scientists explained.
Currently, astronomers do not know how big the star is, to explode. However, observations of other stars in the region – especially in Hubble – will help reveal more details about the life and death of this cosmic giant.
Earlier it was reported that the James Webba telescope discovered nine new brown dwarfs in Perseus’s molecular clouds.
