Another great photo from the James Webb Space Telescope
Every day something new is seen in the universe. What is seen now is a mirror of the end of our Sun billions of years later. This is a dead star. Its name is Nebula Messier 57. The James Webb Space Telescope saw it and the fascinating picture has reached us. This nebula is an epitome of astonishing beauty. It can be easily seen from the earth. Messier 57 (M57) is about 2,200 light-years away from us. It is located in the constellation Lyra. Also called Ring Nebula. Its color is very attractive. In the coming days, it will remain in the center of attraction for space lovers. This nebula is slightly tilted. Due to which it can be easily seen from the earth. Astronomers will find it very easy to study on this nebula. This nebula is considered important for further study. Due to which information about the death of stars will be collected. The special thing is that its glowing gas and dust can be easily seen even with a small telescope. Mike Barlow, co-lead scientist for the Ring Nebula Imaging Project at University College London, says James Webb has opened the door to further study of dead stars by providing a clearer picture of it. Our Sun will also become a dwarf star at the end of its life and it will also look like this.
this will be the future of our sun
When stars the size of the Sun exhaust their fuel for nuclear fusion, they are unable to support themselves against the internal force of their own gravity, leaving the star with a stable equilibrium for billions of years. Can live In the process, its core collapses and the outer layers of the star, where nuclear fusion still continues, are blasted outward. This causes the star to initially swell like a red giant. A similar process will continue in our Sun for about 5 billion years. It will spread around and swallow the inner planets of the Solar System, including Earth.
