The European Space Observatory (ESO) has taken a photo that reveals “ghostly” remnants in deep space, due to the explosion of a giant star that produced a tapestry of colors and waves, and after the massive star’s life has ended with a powerful explosion about 11,000 years ago only the subtle composition of the clouds, pink and orange, remained.
This was demonstrated in detail by the image captured using the Astronomical Survey Telescope of the Very Large Telescope “VLT” of the European Southern Observatory “ESO’s”, located on Mount Paranal in Chile.
The pink and orange gas clouds are located 800 light-years from Earth, making them one of the closest supernova remnants to our planet.
A light year is about 6 trillion miles in diameter, and when the star exploded, its outer layers were ejected into the surrounding gas, producing incredible filaments of bright gas, which glow with the heat of the shock waves.
