NASA’s Webb Telescope discovers ingredients of Margarita around protostar | Image: Instagram: NASA
A day ago, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) space agency posted a new celestial discovery on its Instagram account. NASA’s Wen Telescope, a powerful telescope located 1 million kilometers from Earth’s surface, captured images of a baby star.
NASA’s Webb Telescope discovered similar chemical compositions in margaritas and vinegar in protostars. These components were discovered in baby stars that have not yet formed planets. The agency posted the image with the caption, “What do margaritas and vinegar have in common?” These contain the same chemical composition that @NASAWebb found around two baby stars that have not yet formed planets. Although planets have not yet formed around these stars, the molecules detected there indicate that they could be transported to potentially habitable worlds. ”
In a further post, officials explained why the discovery is surprising and shows signs of a possible solar system. They wrote: “This discovery includes two doses. This image shows a region near protostar IRAS 23385. Protostar IRAS 2A may be similar to the early stages of our solar system. The chemicals found around this protostar may also have been present in the early stages of the solar system’s development and may have been delivered to the proto-Earth later.
NASA also explained the dense state of the molecular cloud region in the post. The space agency said in a post:Image description: Image of molecular cloud region. Orange clouds are dense and bright near the top and become darker and thinner towards the bottom. One bright star with short diffraction spikes and several fainter stars are visible. ”
People’s reactions in the comments:
People in the comments were surprised by this and shared their reactions in the replies section.
One user wrote: Or is it a planet where the presence of these chemicals could eventually lead to the emergence of life?”
Another said, “Am I the only one who thinks the brightest point (probably a star) looks like a pretty snowflake?”
A third user said: “Further proof that we are made from and are part of a galaxy.”
