오늘의 멋진 우주 그림 (2023-01-04)

안녕하세요, 우주 관련 뉴스 입니다. 오늘은 NASA에서 어떤 소식들을 전해줄까요?
우선 이미지를 살펴보도록 하겠습니다!

 

이 이미지 제목은 CG4: The Globule and the Galaxy 러써. NASA에서 공식적으로 제공한 소개를 살펴보겠습니다.

 

Can a gas cloud eat a galaxy? It's not even close. The "claw" of this odd looking "creature" in the featured photo is a gas cloud known as a cometary globule. This globule, however, has ruptured. Cometary globules are typically characterized by dusty heads and elongated tails. These features cause cometary globules to have visual similarities to comets, but in reality they are very much different. Globules are frequently the birthplaces of stars, and many show very young stars in their heads. The reason for the rupture in the head of this object is not yet known. The galaxy to the left of the globule is huge, very far in the distance, and only placed near CG4 by chance superposition. Discovery + Outreach: Graduate student research position open for APOD

 

오늘도 광활한 우주 앞에 인간이 얼마나 작은 존재인지 깨닫게 되네요.
저는 내일도 더 좋은 사진과 함께 돌아오겠습니다, 행복한 지구여행 되세요!
