    Inexplicable Flying Fox found in Hydra Galaxy Cluster

    April 9, 2024, Categories  Astronomy/Space

    GMRT radio image of the central region of the Hydra Cluster. The “head” of the Flying Fox discovered this time points to the south-west (lower right). The Flying Fox has a “wingspan” of 220,000 light years. The white contours in the background show the X-ray surface brightness as observed by ESA’s XMM-Newton satellite.(Credit: Kohei Kurahara)

    High sensitivity radio observations have discovered a cloud of magnetized plasma in the Hydra galaxy cluster. The odd location and shape of this plasma defy all conventional explanations. Dubbed the Flying Fox based on its silhouette, this plasma will remain a mystery until additional observations can provide more insight.

    A team led by Kohei Kurahara at the National Astronomical Observatory of Japan analyzed observations from the Gia...

    A team of astronomers at the National Centre for Radio Astrophysics (NCRA) in Pune, India have discovered a mysterious ring of hydrogen gas around a distant galaxy, using the Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (GMRT). The ring is much bigger than the galaxy it surrounds and has a diameter of about 380,000 light-years (about 4 times that of our Milky Way).

    The galaxy (named AGC 203001), is located about 260 million light-years away from us...
