💥Four galaxies are colliding again & again about 5.4 billion light years from Earth in #space! Why? A 13 million light-year-long stream of #dark matter, galaxies, and gas — known as a filament — is pouring into an area already full of matter! https://t.co/gjMy2gkaE3
#Today Chandra is studying a double #star system within star cluster NGC 3603! The #environment here is not as serene as it looks. Violent stellar #winds and fierce UV radiation have carved out a vast cavity in the surrounding material, giving us a clear view of the star cluster.
About 160,000 light years from Earth, star cluster NGC 1929 is nestled in the N44 nebula. Legions of new stars are forming here and racing through their evolutions to explode as supernovae! Want to know more? https://t.co/HckTMPIplq #beautiful #pic
Right #now Chandra is looking for black holes in Hydra. Nearby in spiral galaxy M83, a black hole had a remarkable outburst, its X-ray output increasing by about 3,000 times! https://t.co/ZimWdZOhvj — #Today's Obs: 8h 53m
Thousands of stars are being assembled in this busy workshop! The Pac-Man Nebula is located roughly 9,200 light years away in the Perseus Arm of our own Milky Way galaxy. This enchanting image is about 48 light years across! https://t.co/wp5eBvPjgQ
#Asteroids may be getting sucked into the #BlackHole at the center of our Milky Way galaxy! #Today is #AsteroidDay! https://t.co/RaYoea6Ch1
