God looks like Godzilla. This nebula is very strange. What did NASA discover?

NASA found a dazzling "Godzilla" in space

Is the "Godzilla" nebula really existed?

Sipzerzo Space Telescope has officially retired in 2020, but its observation data for 16 years is continuously real estate.

If you observe this infrared image carefully, you will find the typical characteristics of monsters, such as glowing eyes, roaring mouth, and even glowing hands or claws in the dark.

Although all this is a beautiful coincidence, behind the new images, people see the remaining value of the retired space telescope. The infrared image is an image discovered by NASA Sipzerzer Space Telescope for nearly two years in January 2020. (The original time is wrong)

People jokingly said that this is a "monster" observed in space in space, but scientists who handle images do not look at it like this. Robert Hete at California Institute of Technology Robert Hit said in a statement in the NASA Jet Prosperity Laboratory: "I'm not looking for monsters."

Since the launch of Sipzzzt Space Telescope in 2003, Hit has used its data to draw a lot of images. He said: "I just happened to put on a area where I have browsed many times. Sometimes, different scale observations may bring with different standards of observations. Surprisingly. For example, in this image, the eyes and mouth of 'Godzilla' are very obvious. "

Hit and other people who observe the universe images may have a tendency to be called fantasy vision, which means that people can see the shape of the face in random data. One of the most famous examples in history was the "face on Mars" shot by "Viking No. 1" in 1976. At that time, the "Viking No. 1" just took the shadow on Mars to line up a straight line on the rock body, like a face in the image.

Interestingly, the Jet Promotion Lab also pointed out other examples of the fantasy misalignment of astronomers in the data of astronomers in the Stipitzer telescope, including black widow spiders, pumpkin lamps, snakes, exposed human brains, and even "interstellar interstellar The "Enterprise" Star Shocks in the Lost ".

When talking about people connecting serious science and interesting imagination, Hut said: "This is the phenomenon we want to see, and I am keen to tell those eye -catching stories, sometimes about stars and stars and How the planets formed, sometimes about how a huge monster attacked Tokyo. "

In the photo, the real starry sky in the "Godzilla" is a very complicated area. It is the first capture of the Sipzze telescope in the project called "Glimpse (the middle of the galaxy ruins)" Image. The project observes the plane of the galaxy with four infrared wavelengths, and 440,000 images are generated, including this.

The Jet Promotion Lab said: "The stars in the upper right corner, that is, the eyes and nose of the" Godzilla ", the distance from the earth is still unknown, but still in our galaxy. That is the right hand of 'Godzilla' -called W33, about 7,800 light years from the earth. "

In addition, the laboratory added that the material here is rich in the necessary substances formed by stars. When the light stars were formed that year, their radiation blowing away the dust and gases of the area. When a large -quality old star exploded in the form of a supernova, the supernova sprinkled heavy elements to the nearby area. These heavy elements could eventually merge into planets or other objects.

The infrared shooting function of the Spipzerzi Telescope gave scientists more understanding of this area. If there is no infrared shooting, humans will not be able to observe this dusty area. Jet Promotion Lab stated that the four colors (blue, cyan, green, and red) in the photo represent the four infrared wavelengths used by Spezdiz, while yellow and white are the combination of wavelength. If you want to find dust, pay attention to green and red areas, red is the dust heated by stars or supernovas.

If you want to use Spiezer's data to create your own "monster", you can pay attention to the Sipzztz art website of California Institute of Technology.
