NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope Captures Images Of Colorful Stars In Massive Milky Way

Scattered stars were captured by the NASA, ESA Hubble Space Telescope when it pointed its cameras towards the direction of the constellation of Sagittarius, The Archer. According to the scientists from the space agency, the colorful and the star-studded image of the enormous Milky Way has revealed amazing view of the blue stars.

The scattered stars could be viewed throughout the frame, which is set against the far off background of the red-colored cosmic companions. The blue litter is considered to have been likely formed at the same period from the similar collapsing molecular cloud.

Based on the study about the newly-captured, scattered stars, the color of the stars could determine several of its mysteries. Stars under the shades of red implies that it is a lot cooler compared to the sun. This means that the star is much less enormous or it is already near the end of its cosmic life, as indicated in the official NASA website.

Moreover, the lower-mass stars are also known as the "red dwarfs" and they are believed to be the most ordinary form of star in the massive Milky Way. At the same time, the brilliant color of blue shows that the stars are young, hot or massive - several times the mass of the sun.

According to scientists, the mass of the star gives an idea of what its fate would be - the more massive stars have been observed to burn brightly over a short lifespan, while the star will die young following only some tens of millions of years.

In addition to this, stars like the sun usually have longer lives and have the more sedentary lifestyles. On the other hand, the smaller stars live their lives in the slow direction and are expected to exist for trillion of years, which is well past the current age of the universe, according to Word Branch.
