Amazing gas molecules in NGC 5908 spiral galaxy
The team of astronomers used a 30m IRAM radio telescope in Spain to conduct observations of its stream of carbon monoxide and isotopes from NGC 5908 spiral galaxy.
The team of astronomers used a 30m IRAM radio telescope in Spain to conduct observations of its stream of carbon monoxide and isotopes from NGC 5908 spiral galaxy.
It is known that NGC 5908 is a giant spiral galaxy with a very high tilt of about 170 million light-years from Earth, with a stellar mass of about 8.3 billion solar masses.
The results also show that the radiation of the galactic environment is not enough to compensate for the amount of gas, energy consumed for star formation. The researchers found that one of the carbon monoxide molecules and its isotopes participate in relatively weak star formation in NGC 5908. Therefore, experts no longer see any new moves from this galaxy.
Therefore, the experts concluded that NGC 5908 is not completely shut down and may be in the period of 'hibernation' before waiting for 'turning' back from a certain impact.
