The James Webb Telescope provides amazing insights into the early times of the universe. NASA is now showing the latest image: behind the cosmic hourglass a new star is forming.
A new world view of nature a promise Thomas Zurbuchen, the Swiss research director at NASA, with images from the James Webb telescope, the first of which was published in July this year.
Now space agencies are offering NASA And the ESA Latest Web Crap. The image shows the circumference of the young star L1527 in Taurus. Hidden in the neck of an hourglass-shaped cloud of gas and dust is the star itself, which is fueling the growth of an orb about 100,000 years old.
The dark line in the center of the neck of the hourglass is what’s known as a protoplanetary disk — a disk of gas and dust that wraps around a protoplanet or similar entity. According to the European Space Agency (ESA), in this case it’s the size of our solar system – the light from L1527 scatters above and below it.
The mass of L1527 is between 20 and 40 percent that of the Sun
So far, L1527 itself is a spherical structure made of gas and dust and, according to the European Space Agency, has a mass between 20 and 40 percent of that of our Sun. If the protostar can continue to accumulate mass and condense to the point where nuclear fusion occurs, then a star is born. However, this process takes several hundred thousand years.
The glowing colored nebulae in the image are made visible by the James Webb Telescope’s Near Infrared Camera. The camera is the telescope’s primary image generator and “simultaneously the biggest differentiator for the older Hubble Telescope, which is equipped exclusively with optical sensors in the visible spectrum,” mentioned Gate «t3n».
Infrared web waves deliver what was previously unseen
While Hubble and its instruments are easily obstructed by gas or dust in space, Webb’s infrared waves can penetrate obstacles and provide significantly more detailed images.
In the same image, the cavities above and below the star, created by layers of dust, glow orange and blue, according to the European Space Agency.
The color differences will result from the different amount of dust between regions of clouds and the telescope: “The dust layer is thinnest in the blue regions. If it were thicker, a little bit of the blue light could escape, resulting in orange regions.”
