The so-called “NGC” NGC 1999, located about 1350 light years away in the constellation Al-Jabbar, was being observed by the telescope.
The European Space Agency blog on the present photograph claims that the reflexive demolition can only be observed when lighted from the interior. This light comes from the newly formed star in this example.
The V380 Orionis young star, which illuminates clouds of gas and dust that are the remnants of the star’s composition and functions as a lamp in a smoke room, is the source of the light that illuminates the NGC 1999.
This star is most likely between a million and three million years old. A black region in the middle of the picture resembles a keyhole in a pitch-black chamber.
According to the satellite observatory of the European Space Agency, the nebula’s key hole offers a glimpse into the universe on the other side, however scientists are still unsure of its origin.
