All-Powerful Cosmic Explosions In Galaxy Far
If we remember back to outer space invaders on the computer game era of the 80s, this is actually a cosmic explosions in distant galaxies. Gamma-ray bursts all-powerful, it has been observed on March 28, 2011 by NASA's Swift satellite.
As reported the Daily Mail, this event allows astronomers shook his head because of this explosion is extraordinary and lasted up to 11 days.
Events explosion of this kind usually only lasts a few hours. Scientists are puzzled because the explosion was not as usual, with effect for so long.
More than one week, they continued to observe the blow of high levels of radiation to fade at the source.
The explosion was likely caused by a star who broke apart after drifting too close to the giant black-hole.
Since the incident, the Hubble Space Telescope and the Chandra X-ray Observatory have been focused to observe the post-explosion.
Hubble will be observed if the galaxy nucleus became brighter in the coming days. These galaxies are 3.8 billion light years from Earth. A light year is equal to about six trillion miles.
