I-24 ka-Epreli iphawula kanye iminyaka eyi-30 ukususela ekuqalisweni kwe-Discovery shuttle STS-31 kunye ne-Hubble Telescope (NASA / ESA Hubble Space Telescope). Ngembeko yesi siganeko, i-US National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) yagqiba ekubeni iphinde ipapashe omnye weyona mifanekiso idumileyo nenomtsalane ethatyathwe kwi-orbital observatory - ifoto "yeNtsika zeNdalo".
Ngaphezulu kweminyaka engamashumi amathathu yokusebenza, u-Hubble uye wadlulisela eMhlabeni isixa esikhulu solwazi lwezenzululwazi, ukubaluleka kwalo kunzima ukuqikelela. Iteleskopu “yajonga” kwiinkwenkwezi ezininzi, iinebula, iminyele kunye neeplanethi. Ngokukodwa, ukubunjwa kobuhle obumangalisayo kwabanjwa - okukhankanywe "IiNtsika zeNdalo".
Esi sakhiwo ngummandla owenza iinkwenkwezi kwi-Eagle Nebula. Imi kumgama omalunga nama-7000 eminyaka yokukhanya ukusuka eMhlabeni.
"IiNtsika zeNdalo" ziquka ubukhulu becala i-hydrogen ye-molecular ebandayo kunye nothuli. Ngaphantsi kwempembelelo yomxhuzulane, i-condensation yenziwa kwi-gas kunye nelifu lothuli, apho iinkwenkwezi zizalwa.
Ifoto edumileyo "yeNtsika zeNdalo" kwibala elibonakalayo (kumfanekiso wokuqala). I-NASA inikezela ngokujonga kwesi sakhiwo kwisibane se-infrared. Kulo mfanekiso, iintsika zibukeka njengezinto ezoyikisayo, ezinobuporho ezibonakala ngasemva kwenani elikhulu leenkwenkwezi eziqaqambileyo (cofa ukuze ukwandise).
