🌠 This research provides insights into the dynamic processes shaping our galaxy's structure, highlighting the interconnected nature of stellar families. Kudos to the team at @univienna for this stellar discovery! #Science #Research #MilkyWay


João Alves @[email protected] reposted

These findings, published in @Nature, show these clusters come from highly active star-forming regions, with supernovae influencing gas distribution in the Milky Way. This groundbreaking work combines data from @esa's Gaia and @NASA's TESS missions. #Astrophysics #StarClusters

New research led by @mac0598 & @joaoalves from #univienna and @bobabenjamin from @UWWhitewater reveals that many nearby star clusters originate from just three "families." ✨ 📷 (c) ESO/STScI Digitized Sky Survey

Read the PR published by @ESO on the infrared atlas of five nearby stellar nurseries that give new insights on young stars and the stellar birth. 🔭 Lead author is Stefan Meingast of the department of #Astrophysics at @univienna: ⤵ eso.org/public/news/es…

“In these images we can detect even the faintest sources of light, like stars far less massive than the Sun, revealing objects that no one has ever seen before,” says Stefan Meingast, “This will allow us to understand the processes that transform gas and dust into stars.”


João Alves @[email protected] reposted

The atlas pieced together more than one million images, by using data from VISTA, @ESO's Visible and Infrared Survey #Telescope for #Astronomy. The result: reveiling new objects, that have never been seen before, to shed some more light on young stars in the making. ☁✨

Thanks to these observations, astronomers have a unique tool with which to decipher the complex puzzle of stellar birth. Curious to learn more? Go here: 🔗 eso.org/public/news/es… 5.

VIRCAM, the camera used to capture these images, can observe an area as large as 3x3 full Moons! 🌕🌕🌕 🌕🌕🌕 🌕🌕🌕 This makes it a unique instrument to study these vast stellar nurseries. 4/
