NASA 나사의 오늘의 이미지들 (2024-02-09)

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

 

해당 사진의 이름은 When Roses Aren't Red 인데요 우선 NASA에서 공식적으로 발표한 설명들을 확인해 보겠습니다

 

Not all roses are red of course, but they can still be very pretty. Likewise, the beautiful Rosette Nebula and other star forming regions are often shown in astronomical images with a predominately red hue, in part because the dominant emission in the nebula is from hydrogen atoms. Hydrogen's strongest optical emission line, known as H-alpha, is in the red region of the spectrum. But the beauty of an emission nebula need not be appreciated in red light alone. Other atoms in the nebula are also excited by energetic starlight and produce narrow emission lines as well. In this close-up view of the Rosette Nebula, narrowband images are mapped into broadband colors to show emission from Sulfur atoms in red, Hydrogen in green, and Oxygen in blue. In fact, the scheme of mapping these narrow atomic emission lines (SHO) into the broader colors (RGB) is adopted in many Hubble images of emission nebulae. This image spans about 50 light-years across the center of the Rosette Nebula. The nebula lies some 3,000 light-years away in the constellation Monoceros.

 

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
