    ✧ black hole ✧

    A black hole is an astronomical body so compact that its gravity prevents anything, including light, from escaping. Black holes typically form when massive stars collapse at the end of their life cycle. In general relativity, crossing a black hole's event horizon traps an object inside but produces no locally de...

  2. The structure of gas and dust resembles a glowing diamond ring. Computer simulations and observations made on board the 'flying observatory' #SOFIA are now able to explain the special shape.

  3. [From atoms to #stars...] Thanks to the NSF's Green Bank Telescope, astronomers (including Luigi Tibaldo from IRAP) have managed to map the dark molecular gas #CO in one of the most active star-forming regions in our galaxy: #CygnusX.

    It is now possible to observe the transformation of simple atoms into complex molecular structures that will one day become stars and planets: public.nrao.edu/news/astronome 👍 👏

  4. [Des atomes aux #étoiles ...] Grâce au Green Bank Telescope de la NSF, des astronomes (dont Luigi Tibaldo de l'IRAP) sont parvenus à cartographier le gaz moléculaire sombre #CO dans l'une des régions de formation stellaire les plus actives de notre galaxie : #CygnusX.

    Il devient désormais possible d'observer la transformation d'atomes simples en structures moléculaires complexes qui deviendront un jour des étoiles, des planètes : public.nrao.edu/news/astronome 👍 👏
