The Veil Nebula is a cloud of heated and ionized gas and dust in the constellation Cygnus. This image is captured by Hubble Space Telescope. V838 Monocerotis is a cataclysmic binary star in the ...

The intricate swirls and striations of interstellar dust have been revealed in stunning detail thanks to the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST). Capturing the light echoes from a supernova explosion ...

To date, most of the light echoes we've detected tend to be from very bright events or very thick dust close to the light source, as we see in the star V838 Monocerotis. Thinner dust, farther from the ...

The moon and stars come down to Earth — in the form of photographs and projections — at the Bankhead Theater for a new exhibit and immersive event by the Livermore Valley Arts this fall. A view of ...

Light echoes at visible wavelengths (such as those seen around the star V838 Monocerotis) are due to light reflecting off of interstellar material. In contrast, light echoes at infrared ...

This theory is called CSI effect." Or: "Astronomers who took a picture of the star V838 Monocerotis remarked that it seems to imitate Vincent van Gogh's The Starry Night. Or: "The release of the 2006 ...

Hubble’s image of V838 Monocerotis reveals changing light echoes, illuminating hidden dust patterns since the star’s sudden brightening in early 2002. Hubble captures a three-light-year gas ...
