Zoom Into Cassiopeia A

Показать описание
This video takes the viewer on a journey to Cassiopeia A (Cas A), a supernova remnant located about 11 000 light-years from Earth in the constellation Cassiopeia. It spans approximately 10 light-years. This new image uses data from Webb’s Mid-InfraRed Instrument (MIRI) to reveal Cas A in a new light.

On the remnant’s exterior, particularly at the top and left, lie curtains of material appearing orange and red that are due to emission from warm dust. This marks where ejected material from the exploded star is ramming into surrounding circumstellar material.

Interior to this outer shell lie mottled filaments of bright pink studded with clumps and knots. This represents material from the star itself, and likely shines by the light produced by a mix of heavy elements and dust emission. The stellar material can also be seen as fainter wisps near the cavity’s interior.

A loop represented in green extends across the right side of the central cavity. Its shape and complexity are unexpected and challenging for scientists to understand.

At the time of this comment, Cassiopeia is in my night sky as high as she can get between the hours of 8:00 and 11:00 PM. The Queen sitting on her throne, and hung upside down!

Aşırı güzeldi ve bilim çocuk dergisini okuyunca daha çok ilgimi çekti çünkü benim ilgimi çeken alanlardan biri uzayı gözlemlemek 😊

Почему у звёзд на этом снимке 4 дифракционных луча? Ведь на всех снимках Джеймса Уэбба 6 дифракционных лучей? Why do the stars in this image have 4 diffraction beams? After all, there are 6 diffraction rays in all the images of James Webb?

Bonjour Youtube, heureusement que je n'ai pas de télescope 🔭, car je passerai ma vie dans les étoiles.

This is the heart of the NOrthern Milky Way. many NGC and Messier objects to point out.

The quality of the video in the beginning is very very poor. You can do better.

На первых кадрах я Кассиопеи не разглядел.
