Milky way has finally explained an amazing mystery that many people could not figure out, scientists doing analysis after analysis to reach a clear conclusion about this answer. According to scientists, a huge gas cloud that surrounds the Milky Way at a distance of about 200.000 light-years, has finally explained its origin, something that scientists have been trying to find out for a long time.
Milky way it has this gas cloud originating from the small galaxies that orbit it, and which will eventually be completely absorbed by it, one of them being already in the process of being destroyed by our galaxy. The respective gas cloud has its source in the halos that surround these small galaxies, which are also made of gases, which are released, and end up surrounding the Milky Way in a way that was not thought possible until now.
The Milky Way: AMAZING Mystery That Was Finally Explained
Milky way it takes part of the gases of the Magellanic flow, but to a lesser extent than astronomers thought, but still we are talking about a substantial influence to be able to attract such a large amount of gases. Scientists have tried for several decades to create accurate models to explain everything that happens in the Milky Way, but after a lot of calculations they finally managed to find out where the gases come from, and the Magellanic flow has the full role.
"A huge stream of high-velocity gas is wrapped most of the way around the Milky Way, about 200.000 light-years away. It has been linked quite conclusively to the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds, dwarf galaxies that orbit and will eventually be cannibalized by the Milky Way. … the gas does not come from inside the Magellanic Clouds. Rather, it is ejected from their galactic nimbus – giant clouds of gas and plasma that envelop most galaxies.”
Milky way it is still going to devour the two galaxies that orbit it, so that in the future it is quite certain that this gas cloud will no longer be visible, because it will no longer have a source, so it should disappear completely. Of course, we are talking about probably billions of years in which everything would happen, so it is quite improbable that any of us will see the finality of this very complex process in the vast universe.
Milky way it is still being researched by scientists, and it is expected that other very important mysteries will be explained by them in the future, some of which may even help us to understand much better what is happening around us.
