Supernova remnant IC 443, composite image
Supernova remnant IC 443, composite image. This is a combination of X-ray (blue), radio (green) and optical (red) data. A supernova remnant (SNR) is an expanding shell of dust and gas that forms following the explosive death of a massive star. The collision of the ejected material with the interstellar medium is causing the material to heat up and glow. IC 443 is thought to have formed some 8000 years ago. It is around 5000 light years from Earth, in the constellation of Gemini. The data, from January 2005, was obtained by ROSAT and the Chandra X-ray telescope (X-ray), the Very Large Array (VLA, radio), and the Digitized Sky Survey (DSS, optical)

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the stunning beauty of Supernova remnant IC 443, a composite image that combines X-ray (blue), radio (green), and optical (red) data. This mesmerizing celestial phenomenon is the result of an explosive demise of a massive star, forming an expanding shell of dust and gas known as a supernova remnant (SNR). The collision between the ejected material and the interstellar medium causes it to heat up and emit a radiant glow. Believed to have formed approximately 8000 years ago, IC 443 resides in the constellation of Gemini, around 5000 light years away from Earth. The data used for this composite image was collected in January 2005 by various advanced telescopes including ROSAT and Chandra X-ray telescope for X-ray observations, Very Large Array for radio observations, and Digitized Sky Survey for optical observations. This awe-inspiring snapshot offers us a glimpse into the vastness of our universe while highlighting the intricate details within this cosmic explosion. It serves as a reminder of both the immense power unleashed during stellar deaths and the breathtaking beauty that arises from such cataclysmic events. Science Photo Library has expertly captured this extraordinary moment in space exploration history with their meticulous attention to detail, providing us with an opportunity to marvel at one of nature's most spectacular displays.
