Summary

Description
Polski: Pozostałość po supernowej G292.0+1.8 w promieniach rentgenowskich. Jest to jedne z trzech pozostałości po supernowych w Drodze Mlecznej, które zawierają duże ilości tlenu. Z tego względu supernowa ta jest bardzo interesująca dla astrofizyków, bowiem tego rodzaju eksplozje rozsiewają w ośrodku międzygwiezdnym "metale" (tj. pierwiastki o Z>2) niezbędne dla uformowania bardziej złożonych obiektów, jak planety skaliste czy organizmy żywe. Zdjęcie rentgenowskie ukazuje rozszerzający się bąbel o intrygująco złożonej strukturze, zawierający tlen (tu widoczny w barwach żółtej i pomarańczowej) i inne pierwiastki, w tym magnez (zielony), krzem i siarkę (niebieski), wytworzone we wnętrzu gwiazdy przed jej śmiercią.
English: At a distance of about 20,000 light years, G292.0+1.8 is one of only three supernova remnants in the Milky Way known to contain large amounts of oxygen. These oxygen-rich supernovas are of great interest to astronomers because they are one of the primary sources of the heavy elements (that is, everything other than hydrogen and helium) necessary to form planets and people. The X-ray image from Chandra shows a rapidly expanding, intricately structured, debris field that contains, along with oxygen (yellow and orange), other elements such as magnesium (green) and silicon and sulfur (blue) that were forged in the star before it exploded.
