This Wednesday (19), the US National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), HE James Webb Space Telescope photographed new stars forming in clouds of gas and dust. Telescope equipment has captured the known territory. Pillars of CreationIt was first photographed by Hubble in 1995.
From the new look of the Pillars of Creation, NASA scientists will be able to better understand the formation of stars, in addition to the possibility of more precisely categorizing newly formed stars in the region – in the image, these stars can be visualized as their spheres. red and bright.
“Young stars periodically shoot supersonic jets that collide with clouds of material like these thick pillars. This also causes bow shocks, which can sometimes create undulating patterns like a boat moving through water,” NASA said in a statement. .
According to information released by NASA, stars are formed in a chemical process involving knots of mass inside columns of gas and dust – the process takes several hundred years. The nodes of mass, after collapsing under their own gravity, gradually heat up until new stars emerge.
The wavy lines appearing at the edges of some pillars are eruptions of stars that are still forming in clouds of gas and dust. These eruptions are supersonic jets, often fired from young stars – meanwhile, the red glow is a result of hydrogen molecules.
