Cosmic Reef: NGC 2014 & NGC 2020

Ғылым және технология

This science visualization presents the dramatic landscape of two nebulas in the Large Magellanic Cloud. The video, based on images by NASA's Hubble Space Telescope, takes viewers on a close-up tour of the nebulas' three-dimensional structures, as envisioned by scientists and artists.
The movie begins with the Hubble view of NGC 2014 (lower left) and NGC 2020 (upper right). The region has been nicknamed the "Cosmic Reef," because of its resemblance to an undersea world. The camera then flies past myriad stars for a close-up look at NGC 2014. The first stop is the bubble of hot gas on the left that has a coral-like appearance. Energetic ultraviolet light from the system's most massive stars has heated the gas, while strong stellar winds (streams of charged particles) help create its bubble structure.
The journey continues into the heart of the nebula, home to extraordinarily massive and bright stars. The glowing gas in this region is bathed in the stars' intense luminosity. In contrast, the dark, denser gas is resisting that radiation, and is blown back to form craggy, mountainous shapes. The virtual flight moves past ridges, valleys, and pockets of new star formation.
The camera then rises up and over a ridge of NGC 2014, revealing the three-dimensional structure of neighboring NGC 2020. The Wolf-Rayet star at its core is the mammoth, intensely hot source of this nebula. Episodes of outbursts from the young star have produced cloudy rings and clumps in the bright blue gas. While Hubble views NGC 2020 looking down the axis of the stellar outflows, the visualization finishes with a side view that illustrates the nebula's double-lobed structure.

    These nebulae are where stars and almost certainly planetary systems too are forming so I expect it would be like very early on in our solar system's history - think chaotic and messy and deadly with a supermassive, superluminous star or few sending huge amounts of radiation blistering through the nebulae and systems within being maelstroms of whirling debris taking shape into new worlds but regularly bombarded and glowing hot from their formations. With suns that are unstable, still flaring, spinning far faster than our sedate yellow dwarf and thus with more star spots (sunspots) and with strong, active, variable T-Tauri type stellar (solar) winds. Think lots of impacts, lots of surfaces glowing red hot or seas of lava and on surfaces of newly born worlds and in their meteor-storm filled skies, vast clouds of dust coalescing and sometimes crashing together or fragmenting apart; falling inwards or being driven outwards from their orbits and generally very volatile conditions. Not great for life - yet. Once the stars and planetary systems here have settled down though, when orbits stabilise and worlds have fully formed and the debris clouds dispersed - asteroids and comets hopefully settled and organised in their belts and the most superluminous (& dangerous) stars have exploded and spread their precious new-forged elements like gold, uranium and metals around; then in a mere few hundred million years, maybe, who knows?

    Thanks for your answer, @FINDLAY GARDENER. However, I'm looking for a fact fight against my lifetime of skepticism about that effect. I may be struggling with my planet-based bias, but it seems to me that, regardless of how fast you went, stars wouldn't look like scuba diving through bioluminescent particles at night, which I've done, and during which you can't help but imagine being aboard a UFP ship during warp speed flight. I love the effect, but it seems to me that stars are simply too far apart to create it, regardless of the speed of the traveler. Am I wrong?

It's not a camera recording (it would take millions of years to fly through a nebula like that with a spaceship as it's many light-years across).

    If we were "close enough", still we couldn't see the whole extent naked-eyed either not only because of the surrounding massive dust layers but also due to our relative position/scale & time (spacetime) - a parable would be that we can draw a RIGHT-angle triangle consisting of 359 degree on earth's surface but only limited to 180 degree if done on a piece of paper. Another factor is that is located 160,000 light years from us, which means now at this point of time, it may no longer exist as per the visual we are getting that actually show its appearance 163,000 years ago
