NASA/ESA/CSA James Web Space Telescope (JWST) pierced in Butterfly Nebula using its mid-infraged instrument (MIRI) camera, which was never seen in Nebula’s heart. This is the first time scientists have seen the super-hot star giving strength to the beautiful, bug-like Nebula.
Butterfly Nebula, also known as NGC 6302, is located about 3,400 light-year away in the constellation Scorpius. Given its relatively proximity, it is a common goal for astronomers and telescopes, including the Hubble Space Telescope. Now $ 10 billion James Web Space Telescope has set its places on Nebula, putting its better infrared technology for testing.
European Space Agency (ESA) (ESA) (ESA) “Nebula is one of the most beautiful and most elusive beings in the cosmic zoo. Tell me“The planet Nabula phase is fleeting, running for only 20,000 years.”
Despite his name, the planets do not belong to the nabula planets. The name originates from a past era when astronomers saw that the planet Nebula was similar to the planets due to its round appearance. But as the butterfly displays nebula, the planet Nebula can take all types of shapes, including some that are definitely not like the planet.
The butterfly nebula is a “bipolar nebula”, which, as ESA states, means “it means two lobes that spread in opposite directions, which form the ‘wings’ of the butterfly.” When seen in many wavelengths of light, such as optical and close light, butterfly nebula by Hubble looks actually like a butterfly. This is really surprising.
The dark band of dusty gas, which forms the “butterfly” body, is a donut -shaped torus. It is usually unclear from cosmic gas and dust.
However, thanks to the web’s Miri, it is possible to see through the dust and look at the vibrant, bright and twisting torus. Researchers can also see the central star of Butterfly Nebula, which scientists could not detect properly due to dust shroud. When scientists discovered the first star, they came empty because cameras lacked the resolution and infrared sensitivity required to see it. The central star is exceptionally warm, with a temperature of about 220,000 Calvin. It is one of the most known central stars of any planet Nabula in Milky Way Galaxy.
The team of researchers led by Mikako Matsura also discovered polycyclic aeromatic hydrocarbons, or PAHS. This can be the first time PAH has been detected in a planet Nabula with oxygen like NGC 6302.
