XZ Tauri System Ejects Gas Bubble

NASA APOD
COSMIC MESSAGE

The binary star system XZ Tauri is ejecting a hot bubble of expanding gas. The Hubble Space Telescope has documented this unusual behavior over five years. The sequence shows the beginnings of a cooling zone, where the expanding gas cools by emitting light as electrons and ions recombine.
