ALMA Telescope Captures Breathtaking Image of Cosmic Dance

#shorts #ALMA #aged star R Leporis #team #observations Scientists have used ALMA to see features 5 milli-arcseconds apart in observations of the aged star R Leporis. That’s like seeing a school bus on the surface of the Moon! They also used a new calibration method that helped refine the observations. And the work paid off. The observations provide the most detailed look yet at the maser around R Leporis. A maser is exactly like a laser, but it is specific to microwave emission. In this case, it’s the emission of hydrogen cyanide that is found in a cloud that surrounds R Leporis. The astronomers are excited about the new possibilities for the scientific community. They can now study the movement of this gas and learn more about the Cosmos.
