DescriptionSn2006gy CHANDRA x-ray.jpg |
Original caption: "Chandra X-ray Image of SN 2006gy. SN 2006gy is the brightest stellar explosion ever recorded and may be a long-sought new type of supernova, according to observations by NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory and ground-based optical telescopes. This discovery indicates that violent explosions of extremely massive stars were relatively common in the early universe. These data also suggest that a similar explosion may be ready to go off in our own Galaxy. (Credit: NASA/CXC/UC Berkeley/N.Smith et al.) " |
