Milky way managed to amaze the researchers with an impressive phenomenon that took place in our galaxy, and which is not exactly one that happens even that often in the universe. More precisely, it seems that a small object was simply thrown through the Milky Way by an explosion that researchers discovered some time after it took place, and that surprised them with the force it sent when it was triggered.
Milky way there would have been a partial supernova that threw that object through the universe, and this is because we are talking about a huge amount of energy that is released in the universe when events of this kind take place. Objects of this kind are called "white dwarfs", and they are the solid cores, the size of the Earth, of some stars that have turned into supernovae, and about the same thing should happen to our sun at some point in the future. time.
Milky Way: Researchers STUNNED by an Impressive Phenomenon
Milky way it is not the first white dwarf that is discovered by researchers, but usually these objects have internal structures arranged in various layers, and their nuclei are mainly made of carbon and oxygen. Around them are layers of helium and nitrogen, but in this white dwarf they discovered a strange combination between oxygen, neon, magnesium and silicon, which was not exactly easy to explain by the researchers for now.
A strange new white dwarf star collapsing through the Milky Way may be the survivor of a 'partial supernova,' a new study finds. In a new study, scientists zeroed in on the white dwarf SDSS J1240 + 6710, located about 1.430 light-years from Earth. Discovered in 2015, previous work found that this white dwarf had an unusual atmosphere that appeared to possess neither hydrogen nor helium, but instead was composed of a strange mixture of oxygen, neon, magnesium and silicon."
Milky way has this object located 1430 light-years in relation to the Earth, traveling at a speed of approximately 900.000 km/h, a huge one, but in the direction opposite to the direction of rotation of the galaxy. Also interesting for researchers is the fact that the mass of this object is only 40% of that of the sun, which is not so common, and this makes this white dwarf different from other similar objects discovered in the Milky Way.
Milky way it is the source for many important cosmic objects, and we will more than likely hear from researchers about similar discoveries in the not too distant future.
