Image description

This 400 by 900 light-year mosaic, released January 9, 2002, of several Chandra observatory images of the central region of our Milky Way galaxy reveals hundreds of white dwarf stars, neutron stars, and black holes bathed in an incandescent fog of multimillion-degree gas. The supermassive black hole at the center of the Galaxy is located inside the bright white patch in the center of the image. A new panoramic X-ray image of the Milky Way galaxy reveals a turbulent heart teeming with 1,000 sources of high energy that might be dying stars or black holes, astronomers reported on Wednesday.
