(生于璀璨!)
Celestial Fireworks! 🌟 Like a Fourth of July fireworks display, this glittering collection of stars located 20,000 light-years away from Earth looks like a red, white & blue aerial burst.
天体烟花! 🌟就像7月4日的烟火表演一样,这个闪闪发光的星星系列距离地球2万光年,看起来像是红色,白色和蓝色的空中烟花。

Spotted in 2009 by our @NASAHubble Space Telescope as colorful and serene sight, this environment is anything but that! Ultraviolet radiation and violent stellar winds have blown out an enormous cavity in the gas and dust enveloping the cluster of huge, hot stars. Most of the stars in the cluster were born around the same time but differ in size, mass, temperature and color.
我们的@NASAHubble太空望远镜在2009年发现了色彩缤纷,宁静的景象,这个环境就是这样!紫外线辐射和猛烈的恒星风吹起了巨大的空气,包围着巨大的热星团。群集中的大多数恒星大约在同一时间出生,但大小,质量,温度和颜色不同。

The course of a star's life is determined by its mass, so a cluster of a given age will contain stars in various stages of their lives, giving an opportunity for detailed analyses of stellar life cycles. The cluster seen here contains some of the most massive stars known. These huge stars live fast and die young, burning through their hydrogen fuel quickly and ultimately ending their lives in supernova explosions.
恒星生命的过程取决于它的质量,因此一个特定年龄的星团将包含生命各个阶段的恒星,为详细分析恒星生命周期提供了机会。这里看到的星团包含一些已知的最大质量恒星。这些巨大的恒星快速生存并且年轻时死亡,迅速燃烧氢燃料并最终以超新星爆炸结束生命。

Star clusters provide astronomers with important clues to understand the origin of massive star formation in the early, distant universe.
星团为天文学家提供了重要的线索,可以了解早期遥远宇宙中大质量恒星形成的起源。
