Supernova remnant IC 443
Supernova remnant IC 443. Optical image of IC 443 (red, centre right), a supernova remnant in the constellation Gemini. North is at top. Two bright stars (orange) are Eta Geminorum (right) and Mu Geminorum (left). IC 443 is part of a shell of gas that was ejected by a supernova, the explosive death of a massive star. The hydrogen gas in the remnant is glowing as it collides with a dark, cool cloud of molecular gas. This collision excites the hydrogen molecules, causing them to emit red light. It is thought that the supernova explosion responsible for this shell of gas occurred around 8000 years ago

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the stunning Supernova remnant IC 443, a celestial wonder located in the constellation Gemini. The image captures the remnants of a massive star's explosive death, known as a supernova, which occurred approximately 8000 years ago. At the center-right of the photograph, we can observe IC 443 itself, emitting a mesmerizing red glow. Surrounding it are two bright stars - Eta Geminorum on the right and Mu Geminorum on the left - both shining in vibrant orange hues. IC 443 is enveloped by a shell of gas that was ejected during its cataclysmic explosion. This gas shell collides with a dark and cool cloud of molecular gas, causing an exciting phenomenon to occur. As hydrogen molecules within this collision become energized, they emit radiant red light that illuminates their surroundings. The intricate details captured in this optical image offer valuable insights into cosmology and astrophysics. It reminds us of the immense power and beauty present within our universe. With its mix of science and artistry, this print from Science Photo Library invites us to marvel at nature's grandeur while contemplating the mysteries that lie beyond our reach.
