• Colossal Hot Cloud Envelopes Colliding Galaxies

  
  ChandraBlog - Fresh Chandra News — Authority: 512
  Scientists have used Chandra to make a detailed study of an enormous cloud of hot gas enveloping two large, colliding galaxies. This unusually large reservoir of gas contains as much mass as 10 billion Suns, spans about 300,000 light years, and radiates at a temperature of more than 7 million degrees. This giant gas ...

• Entire Galaxies Feel The Heat Of Newborn Stars

  
  — Authority:
  This illustration shows a messy, chaotic galaxy undergoing bursts of star formation. This star formation is intense; it was known that it affects its host galaxy, but this new research shows it has an even greater effect than first thought. The winds created by these star formation processes stream out of the galaxy, ...

• Newborn Stars and their Effect on the Universe

  
  — Authority:
  When galaxies form new stars, they sometimes do so in frantic episodes of activity known as starbursts. These events were commonplace in the early Universe, but are rarer in nearby galaxies. During these bursts, hundreds of millions of stars are born, and their combined effect can drive a powerful wind that travels ...

• Starburst Galaxies Effect Far Into The Universe Than Initially Believed

  
  — Authority:
  Astronomers using the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope have shown for the first time that bursts of star formation have a major impact far beyond the boundaries of their host galaxy. These energetic events can affect galactic gas at distances of up to twenty times greater than the visible size of the galaxy — ...

• Massive Starburst Galaxy discovered by Astronomers

  
  — Authority:
    The galaxies were considered to be smaller earlier and would merge together to form large galaxies that are seen in the universe today. These large galaxies produce stars at a modest rate and are called as star factories. These star factories also called starburst galaxies became prevalent a couple of billion years ...

• HFLS3: the earliest Starburst yet!

  
  In the Dark — Authority: 140
  Once again I’ve spent all day engaged in the enjoyable but exhausting task of interview for new faculty positions, which means that I haven’t really got time for a proper blog today. What I can do, however, is shamelessly rip off a nice press release produced by the good folks here at the University of Sussex ...

• Make a Clothespin Sunburst Mirror

  
  Dollar Store Crafts — Authority: 543
  Weve seen many variations on the sunburst/starburst mirror, and we love them all!  And just when we think weve seen them all, BAM!  Someone comes up with another great idea for us to share.  This version was made by Amy at My 3 Monsters using deconstructed clothespins glue back-to-back.  I love how it gives the ...
