Image title
Planetary Nebula of Boomerang in Centaur/HST - The Boomerang Nebula is a young planetary nebula and the coldest object found in the Universe so far. This NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope image shows a young planetary nebula known (rather curiously) as the Boomerang Nebula. It is in the constellation of Centaurus, 5000 light - years from Earth. Planetary nebulae form around a bright, central star when it expels gas in the last stages of its life. The Boomerang Nebula is one of the University's peculiar places. In 1995, using the 15 - metre ESO SEST Telescope in Chile, astronomers revealed that it is the coldest place in the Universe found so far. With a temperature of - 272 degrees Celsius, it is only 1 degree warmer than absolute zero (the lowest limit for all temperatures). Even the - 270 degrees Celsius glow from the Big Bang is warmer than this nebula. It is the only object found so far that has a temperature lower than the microwave background. Keith Taylor and Mike Scarrott called it the Boomerang Nebula in 1980 after observing it with a large ground - based telescope in Australia. Unable to see the detail that only Hubble can reveal, the astronomers saw merely a slight asymmetry in the nebula's lobes suggesting a curved shape like a boomerang. The high - resolution Hubble images indicate that 'the Bow tie Nebula' would perhaps have been a better name. The Hubble telescope took this image in 1998. It shows faint arcs and ghostly filaments embedded within the diffuse gas of the nebula's smooth 'bow tie' lobes. The diffuse bow - tie shape of this nebula makes it quite different from other observed planetary nebulae, which normally have lobes that look more like 'bubbles' blown in the gas. However, the Boomerang Nebula is so young that it may not have had time to develop these structures. Why planetary nebulae have so many different shapes is still a mystery. The general bow - tie shape of the Boomerang appears to have been created by a very fierce 500,000
