The Hubble telescope captured a star ready to explode
Yesterday, the American experts in the field of astronomical research have been received, at least, unique image, made a telescope "Hubble" is already available online for viewing. Photographs taken with the latest equipment installed in the system of this telescope, depicted an exploding star, having regard to the spectral class "B" with great proximity to the nebula and purple surrounded by a cloud of gas.
The greatest attention is attracted scientists is the star, because in the coming months, and to compilation of astronomical maps, it will become a supernova. The researchers also put forward the assumption that the star has some similarities with the model of the supernova SN 1987A, respectively, open in 1987, the year of the last century and is visible from the surface of the earth without any weapons. Scientists say that the observation of the star before the explosion took place during the current process will clarify the details of the evolution of cosmic bodies.
