August 20, 2013 at 11:32 am local time, giant the ALMA radio telescope, which is in the Chilean desert, was recorded the birth of a new star in the constellation Parus. Photo This unique event is being studied by specialists from all over the world. On the the pictures clearly show how Herbig-Aro objects (so they were dubbed astronomers) add up to fancy patterns. These bewitching patterns appeared as a result of rapid gas flows, discarded by a born star and colliding in their path with space debris and dust. Moreover, the velocity of these gases reaches a million kilometers per hour. These pictures are unique because previously scientists were able to capture and study only the flow of gases that moved towards the Earth. Herbig-Aro’s unique shots allow experts to take a fresh look at the picture of the birth of stars. Herbig-Aro Objects are located at a distance of approximately 1400 light years from Earth. The pictures clearly show how from the newborn stars go down green and orange energy flows, and to the left – pink and purple. However, the further movement of these flows is hidden in clouds of dust and gas. Co-author of the study of the birth of a new star Diego Mardones said that based on observations received Thanks to the ALMA telescope, we can conclude that carbon monoxide molecules cause an unusual glow captured in the pictures. Using the glowing clouds of a newborn star, scientists at the southern European observatory decided to create a video tour with images of this miracle. They are sure that so many are interested will look at the process of formation and birth of a new one stars. Moreover, this star is isolated and has a fairly low weight. In addition, the flow of energy emitted by it is unusual affects a cloud of gas and dust – it seems that a young star just “runs away” from the parent cloud, which her forms. And although scientists understand that this happens as a result of cosmic wind blows, the spectacle of the birth of a new star is not only exciting, but also inherently unique.
