Hubble Captures Dazzling 'Stellar Snowball' Explosion in Nearby Galaxy
NASA's Hubble Space Telescope has captured a breathtaking image of a stellar explosion in the Large Magellanic Cloud, showcasing debris filaments that resemble cosmic fireworks. This observation underscores Hubble's significant contributions to astronomy since its launch in 1990, including over 1.5 million observations and aiding in the publication of more than 20,000 scientific papers. The Large Magellanic Cloud, a satellite galaxy of the Milky Way, serves as a key research location for understanding galactic formation and evolution.
