Astronomers at the Keck Astronomical Observatory in Hawaii (USA) have focused on studying large nebulae (clouds of a mixture of dust, hydrogen, helium and plasma), believed to be the intersection of "networks". Space".

During the study, scientists used intense radiation emitted from a quasar - the object in the universe was sucked into a giant black hole in the center of the Milky Way - to form a "lamp." phase " illuminates part of the upper network with the help of a computer's light analysis system.

The finding shows the structure of the "space network" , while also reinforcing the hypothesis that objects in the Milky Way are distributed according to a net after releasing hydrogen gas in the Big Bang. However, scientists also claim to have "been fortunate" in observing the network, when quasar radiation - the brightest object in the universe, has hit the net, making some glowing gas strip.
