Fine Art Print : Artwork of the Suns neighbourhood
Fine Art Prints from Science Photo Library
Artwork of the Suns neighbourhood
The Suns neighbourhood. Map of a small portion of our Milky Way galaxy centred on the Sun. The Sun lies near the centre of the central loop of gas (yellow). Known as the Local Bubble, it has a diameter of some 500 light years and, like the other gas loops surrounding it, was created either by blast waves of supernova explosions or by the combined stellar winds of young stars. Red giant stars are marked by red circles with yellow cores, blue giant stars by blue circles with white cores. Pink areas are planetary nebulae, which mark the final stages in the life of certain stars. The Henbest/Baum galaxy map is based on the locations of 1500 bright stars, nebulae and other objects

EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork showcases the intricate beauty of our Sun's neighborhood within the vast expanse of the Milky Way galaxy. The print depicts a small portion of our galactic home, with the Sun positioned near the center of a mesmerizing loop of luminous gas in vibrant yellow hues. Known as the Local Bubble, this celestial structure spans an impressive diameter of approximately 500 light years. The Local Bubble is believed to have been formed by powerful blast waves from supernova explosions or by the combined stellar winds emanating from young stars. Within this cosmic tapestry, red giant stars are distinguished by their striking red circles adorned with radiant yellow cores, while blue giant stars are represented by blue circles accompanied by pristine white cores. Adding further splendor to this celestial tableau, pink areas denote planetary nebulae - ethereal formations that signify the final stages in certain star's life cycles. This awe-inspiring Henbest/Baum galaxy map has been meticulously crafted based on precise data gathered from 1500 bright stars, nebulae, and other celestial objects. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of artistry, we are reminded not only of our own minuscule place within the grandeur of space but also how interconnected and wondrously diverse our universe truly is.
