What’s hiding behind this Cosmic Tornado? 🌪️
When NASA’s Spitzer Space Telescope observed it in 2006, scientists nicknamed Herbig-Haro 49/50 (HH 49/50) the ‘Cosmic Tornado’ for its helical appearance, but they were uncertain about the nature of the fuzzy object at the tip of the ‘tornado.’ With its higher imaging resolution, Webb provides a different visual impression of HH 49/50 by revealing fine features of the shocked regions in the outflow, uncovering the fuzzy object to be a distant spiral galaxy, and displaying a sea of distant background galaxies.

It’s interesting that everywhere you look people say we really don’t know how stars are made BUT LOOK, we have now learned that the space tornado is coming from the creation of a star! She has solved the mysteries of the universe! Quick, get her an award! And don’t worry it’s legit because she has an English accent!
Her eyes itself like our beautiful universe❤
Wow, how important this is for us to know not at all
