Young Stars at Home in Ancient Cluster
NGC 6752 Looking like a hoard of gems fit for an emperor's collection, this deep sky object called NGC 6752 is in fact far more worthy of admiration. It is a globular cluster, and at over 10 billion years old is one the most ancient collections of stars known. It has been blazing for well over twice as long as our solar system has existed.
NGC 6752 contains a high number of "blue straggler'' stars, some of which are visible in this image. These stars display characteristics of stars younger than their neighbors, despite models suggesting that most of the stars within globular clusters should have formed at approximately the same time. Their origin is therefore something of a mystery.
Studies of NGC 6752 may shed light on this situation. It appears that a very high number -- up to 38 percent -- of the stars within its core region are binary systems. Collisions between stars in this turbulent area could produce the blue stragglers that are so prevalent.
Lying 13,000 light-years distant, NGC 6752 is far beyond our reach, yet the clarity of Hubble's images brings it tantalizingly close.


(प्राचीन क्लस्टर में घर पर युवा सितारे
6752 NGC एक सम्राट के संग्रह, इस गहरे आकाश बुलाया वस्तु NGC 6752 के लिए फिट जवाहरात की एक ढेर की तरह देख रहे हैं वास्तव में कहीं अधिक प्रशंसा के योग्य है. यह एक गोलाकार क्लस्टर है, और एक पर 10 अरब साल पुराना ज्ञात सितारों में से सबसे प्राचीन संग्रह. यह दो बार के रूप में लंबे समय के रूप में हमारे सौर प्रणाली अस्तित्व में है पर किया गया है के लिए अच्छी तरह से धधकते.
NGC 6752 "नीला घुमक्कड़'' सितारों, जिनमें से कुछ इस छवि में दिखाई दे रहे हैं के एक उच्च संख्या में शामिल इन सितारों को अपने पड़ोसियों की तुलना में युवा सितारों की विशेषताओं सुझाव है कि गोलाकार समूहों के भीतर सितारों में से अधिकांश लगभग में गठन किया है चाहिए मॉडल के बावजूद प्रदर्शित. एक ही समय में उनके मूल इसलिए एक रहस्य के बारे में कुछ है.
6752 की NGC अध्ययन इस स्थिति पर प्रकाश डाला सकता है. ऐसा लगता है कि एक बहुत ही उच्च संख्या 38 प्रतिशत तक अपने मूल क्षेत्र के भीतर सितारों की बाइनरी सिस्टम हैं. इस अशांत क्षेत्र में सितारों के बीच टक्कर नीले stragglers का उत्पादन कर सकता है कि बहुत प्रचलित हैं.
NGC 6752, 13,000 प्रकाश वर्ष दूर झूठ बोलना तक हमारी पहुंच से परे है, अभी तक हबल छवियों की स्पष्टता tantalizingly करीब लाता है.)

NASA Readies New Type of Earth-Observing Satellite for Launch

Image
NASA is planning an Oct. 27 launch of the first Earth-observing satellite to measure both global climate changes and key weather variables. The National Polar-orbiting Operational Environmental Satellite System Preparatory Project (NPP) is the first mission designed to collect critical data to improve weather forecasts in the short-term and increase our understanding of long-term climate change. NPP continues observations of Earth from space that NASA has pioneered for more than 40 years. NPP's five science instruments, including four new state-of-the-art sensors, will provide scientists with data to extend more than 30 key long-term datasets. These records, which range from the ozone layer and land cover to atmospheric temperatures and ice cover, are critical for global change science. "NPP's observations of a wide range of interconnected Earth properties and processes will give us the big picture of how our planet changes," said Jim

Cosmic crashes forge gold

Image
Various stages of the merger of two neutron stars are shown in this simulation sequence; the images cover a period of about one-hundredth of a second. Once the stars collide, material is squeezed out between the stars and gets stripped off from tidal tails. In the material ejected, a multitude of nuclear reactions takes place, producing heavy elements. Photo by S. Goriely, A. Bauswein, and H.-T. Janka (MPA) The cosmic site where the heaviest chemical elements such as lead or gold are formed has likely been identified: Ejected matter from neutron stars merging in a violent collision provides ideal conditions. In detailed numerical simulations, scientists of the Max Planck Institute for Astrophysics (MPA) in Garching, Germany, and affiliated to the Excellence Cluster Universe and of the Free University of Brussels (ULB) in Belgium have verified that the relevant reactions of atomic nuclei do take place in this environment, producing the heaviest elemen
