Astronomers have revealed a photograph of a distant dying star – Messier 76 (M76)

In conjunction with the European Space Agency (ESA), NASA has released a photograph of the Little Dumbbell Nebula, which is 3,400 light-years away from Earth. The image was taken with the Hubble orbiting telescope.

This cosmic region is also known as Messier 76 (M76) and is a planetary nebula made up of gas left behind after the death of a red giant. In the process of evolution, such stars turn into white dwarfs, which are dead and superdense.

They are also known as Messier 76 (M76).

The photo shows rings forming ribs as well as a rod structure. Scientists speculate that the center ring was formed early in evolution under the influence of another star. Gas released after the star’s death formed two expanding regions on the sides of the central rod.

The flow of gas can reach incredible speeds of more than 3,000,000 kilometers per hour. The star turns into a white dwarf as a result, leaving a small dot in the center of the nebula. The gas around it begins to glow due to the ultraviolet radiation from this dot. The red color is due to nitrogen, and the blue color is due to — oxygen.
