Eta Carinae A is 90 times more massive than the sun while B is 30 times as massive. Due to the eccentricity in B´s orbit, every 5.5 years, A and B as close together as Mars is to our sun. The nebula shown here was the result of an very large eruption by Eta Carinae in the 1840´s. The stars exhibits strange behaviors because the stars weren't destroyed in the ¨supernova¨ that create the Homonculus Nebula, they also lost some of their stellar mass. Additionally, when they are close, their spectral signature radically changes from UV to much longer electromagnetic waves. Eta Carinae A, the larger star, could erupt into an actual supernova at any time.]]> 2020-05-14 15:04:23 UTC https://padlet.com/sd54/iuczvohyr8qck1hy/wish/572914049 Liam Trinidad's Hubble Image (September 8th) M81 Galaxy 1444112 https://padlet.com/sd54/iuczvohyr8qck1hy/wish/572930268 This spiral galaxy is a galaxy that is filled with young, blue, hot stars, and similar to the Milky way.
