아름답고 멋진 우주사진 2023년 12월 24일

2023년 12월 24일자 도착할 우주여행 장소는 사진에 나온 장소입니다.

여기는 NGC 2440: Cocoon of a New White Dwarf 입니다. 

 

 

What's that in the center? Like a butterfly, a white dwarf star begins its life by casting off a cocoon of gas that enclosed its former self. In this analogy, however, the Sun would be a caterpillar and the ejected shell of gas would become the prettiest cocoon of all. In the featured cocoon, the planetary nebula designated NGC 2440 contains one of the hottest white dwarf stars known. The white dwarf can be seen as the bright orange dot near the image center. Our Sun will eventually become a white dwarf butterfly, but not for another 5 billion years.

 

멋지고 아름다운 우주여행에 탑승해주셔서 감사합니다.

다음에도 멋진 장소로 모실 수 있도록 노력하겠습니다.
