오늘의 우주 사진 (2023-05-25)

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

 

이 사진의 이름은 Cat's Eye Wide and Deep 인데요 국제기구인 NASA에서도 공식 자료를 확인해보도록 하겠습니다

 

The Cat's Eye Nebula (NGC 6543) is one of the best known planetary nebulae in the sky. Its more familiar outlines are seen in the brighter central region of the nebula in this impressive wide-angle view. But this wide and deep image combining data from two telescopes also reveals its extremely faint outer halo. At an estimated distance of 3,000 light-years, the faint outer halo is over 5 light-years across. Planetary nebulae have long been appreciated as a final phase in the life of a sun-like star. More recently, some planetary nebulae are found to have halos like this one, likely formed of material shrugged off during earlier episodes in the star's evolution. While the planetary nebula phase is thought to last for around 10,000 years, astronomers estimate the age of the outer filamentary portions of this halo to be 50,000 to 90,000 years. Visible on the right, some 50 million light-years beyond the watchful planetary nebula, lies spiral galaxy NGC 6552.

 

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