NASA and the European Space Agency (ESA) shared a striking photo of the Hubble Space Telescope that Tarantula Nebula (Officially 30 Doradus) displayed external walls. This impressive nebula, which is located in the Great Magellan Cloud, is known as one of the largest and most active star formation zones in the universe.

The “near” most productive star formation zone

The Tarantula Nebula is the title of “largest and most productive star formation zone in the local universe (in 1 billion light years). According to NASA, there are huge stars in the center of this region reaching about 200 times the mass of the Sun. The new image captured by Hubble focuses on the outer walls of the nebula and focuses on the eye -catching view of the stars shining with layer -layer colored gases.

These fascinating images that Hubble delivers us, actually come with gray intonation. As NASA explains, scientists get images of various wavelengths using different color filters of telescope, and create a combined composite image by adding coloring corresponding to these filters. This process allows not only visible light, but also the representation of ultraviolet and infrared light. These wavelengths, which the human eye cannot be perceived, are assigned to certain colors and the images are given depth.

On the other hand, the Hubble Space Telescope, launched in 1990, has been continuing to observe the depths of the universe for more than 30 years. Telescope, which has signed numerous discoveries during this time, continues to affect even nowadays. In the meantime, the Great Macellan Cloud is 160 thousand light years away from us. Although the Milky Way Galaxy has only 10-20 percent mass, the large Magellan cloud contains some of the most impressive star formation zones in the near universe.
