오늘의 우주 사진 (2023-05-03)

최근 NASA에서 우주 모습을 알려줬는데요 과연 어떻게 보여질지 기대가 됩니다
그러면 지금부터 이미지를 살펴보겠습니다

 

이 사진의 이름은 Centaurus A: A Peculiar Island of Stars 인데요 국제기구인 NASA에서도 공식 자료를 확인해보도록 하겠습니다

 

Galaxies are fascinating. In galaxies, gravity alone holds together massive collections of stars, dust, interstellar gas, stellar remnants and dark matter. Pictured is NGC 5128, better known as Centaurus A. Cen A is the fifth brightest galaxy on the sky and is located at a distance of about 12 million light years from Earth. The warped shape of Cen A is the result of a merger between an elliptical and a spiral galaxy. Its active galactic nucleus harbors a supermassive black hole that is about 55 million times more massive than our Sun. This central black hole ejects a fast jet visible in both radio and X-ray light. Filaments of the jet are visible in red in the upper left. New observations by the Event Horizon Telescope have revealed a brightening of the jet only towards its edges -- but for reasons that are currently unknown and an active topic of research. At NASA it's: Black Hole Week

 

이번에도 광대한 우주크기에 인간이 얼마나 작은지 확인하게 되는 사건입니다
그러면 다음시간에 더 좋은 정보들을 들고 오도록 하겠습니다 행복한 지구여행 되시길 바랍니다
