Detection of cosmic
The huge "tsunami" that only one wave can "sink" our entire galaxy.
Scientists at the Chandra X-ray Observatory of the US Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) have released a special discovery in space.
Cluster of galaxies Perseus.
Specifically, a giant "tsunami" of hot gas is overflowing through the cluster of Perseus - a system of thousands of galaxies in the constellation Perseus. Its size is so large that only one wave can "sink" our entire galaxy, according to BRG.
Scientists believe that a small cluster of galaxies has passed through the galaxy cluster Perseus more than billions of years ago, stirring Perseus's atmosphere, creating a whirlpool, in which giant waves form.
The discovery of the "tsunami" is expected to be published in the Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society in June this year.
"Tsunami" is thought to be about 200,000 light-years long, about twice the size of our Milky Way. It is classified as Kelvin-Helmholtz wave , created by instability between unmixed liquids. Its enormous size is the direct result of the magnetic field strength of the galaxy cluster Perseus. Later, "tsunami" will melt but at least it will take millions of years.
An illustration of a giant "tsunami" containing hot gas is overflowing through the cluster of galaxies Perseus.
NASA's "tsunami" illustration shows a giant red-orange swirl in space, originally a small dot but then spreading and forming a gas motion.
However, the possibility of "tsunami" affecting the Earth is very small. The cluster of Perseus galaxies is 250 million light-years away from Earth, and the "tsunami" is basically the result of a cluster of galaxies emitting a bit of steam, and does not affect the Earth.
