Galaxies, Stars and Nebulae series This mosaic image of the magnificent starburst galaxy, Messier 82 (aka Cigar Galaxy) is a really sharp wide-angle view. M82 is a galaxy remarkable for its webs of shredded clouds and flame-like plumes of glowing hydrogen blasting out from its central regions where young stars are being born, 10 times faster than they are inside in our Milky Way Galaxy.

Happy Anniversay Darling - Cygnus, The Swan Card
tagged with: wedding, anniversary, wedding anniversaries, awesome hubble images, star birth, constellation cygnus the swan, outer space, star nurseries, hrbstslr cygsb, star galaxies, interstellar gas clouds, young hot stars, new star s106ir, star forming activity, glowing hydrogen, turbulence, universe
Galaxies, Stars and Nebulae series A gorgeous greetings card featuring a star forming region in Constellation Cygnus (The Swan). This Hubble image shows a dust-rich, interstellar gas cloud with a new-born star in the centre of the hour-glass shape. The glowing blue of the hydrogen in this nebula is due to the jets being emitted from the forming star as dust falls into into it and this causes the heating and turbulence of the hydrogen. The star, known as S106 IR, is reaching the end of its birth and will soon enter the much quieter period of adulthood known as the main stage.
