The Witch's Broom Nebula
Humbling to think we are all built from the elements of "star dust" from supernovae. As you probably know a supernova occurs when a Very large star collapses on itself and "bang"/explosion, well much more than just a bang as no sound in space just explodes. We get the cosmic "radiation" blip here on earth from light years away much later, but never know when or where they will come from, but history and telescopes record a few. The created elements floating in space will get sucked in to form for example our solar system and us! http://apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap130529.html |
