Summary
[edit]DescriptionThe star formation region NGC 2035 imaged by the ESO Very Large Telescope.jpg |
English: The Large Magellanic Cloud is one of the closest galaxies to our own. Astronomers have now used the power of the ESO’s Very Large Telescope to explore NGC 2035, one of its lesser known regions, in great detail. This new image shows clouds of gas and dust where hot new stars are being born and are sculpting their surroundings into odd shapes. But the image also shows the effects of stellar death — filaments created by a supernova explosion (left). Deutsch: Die Große Magellansche Wolke ist eine unserer nächsten Nachbargalaxien. Astronomen haben nun mit dem Very Large Telescope der ESO eines ihrer unbekannteren Gebiete im Detail erkundet. Das neue Bild zeigt eine Gas- und Staubwolke, in der heiße neue Sterne geboren werden, die ihre Umgebung zu eigenartigen Gebilden verformen. Allerdings zeigt dieses Bild auch den Effekt von Sterntod – Filamente, die in Folge von Supernovaexplosionen entstanden sind (links). |
