NASA 나사의 오늘의 이미지들 (2023-01-17)

안녕하세요, 잡학다식 입니다. 오늘은 과연 나사에서 어떤 방식으로 우주의 형상을 표현해 줄까요?
우선 이미지부터 볼 수 있도록 하겠습니다

 

해당 사진의 이름은 Unexpected Clouds Toward the Andromeda Galaxy 인데요 우선 NASA에서 공식적으로 발표한 설명들을 확인해 보겠습니다

 

Why are there oxygen-emitting arcs near the direction of the Andromeda galaxy? No one is sure. The gas arcs, shown in blue, were discovered and first confirmed by amateur astronomers just last year. The two main origin hypotheses for the arcs are that they really are close to Andromeda (M31), or that they are just coincidentally placed gas filaments in our Milky Way galaxy. Adding to the mystery is that arcs were not seen in previous deep images of M31 taken primarily in light emitted by hydrogen, and that other, more distant galaxies have not been generally noted as showing similar oxygen-emitting structures. Dedicated amateurs using commercial telescopes made this discovery because, in part, professional telescopes usually investigate angularly small patches of the night sky, whereas these arcs span several times the angular size of the full moon. Future observations -- both in light emitted by oxygen and by other elements -- are sure to follow.

 

이번에도 광활한 우주 앞에 인간이 얼마나 작은 존재인지 다시 한번 알게 되는것 같습니다
저는 내일도 더 좋은 사진과 함께 돌아오겠습니다, 그럼 행목한 하루 되시길 바랍니다
