El cúmulo estelar Westerlund 2.jpg


Explanation: The Westerlund 1 Star Wing hosts some of the largest and largest known stars. It is supported by star Westerlund 1-26, represented by a super giant star, so red that if placed in the center of our Solar System it would extend to the orbit of Jupiter. In addition, the group of young stars is home to 3 other red super giants, 6 yellow hieroglyphs, 24 stars Wolf-Rayet (star Rayet wolf) and some even more unusual stars that continue to be studied. Westerlund 1 is relatively close to a group of stars at a distance of 15,000 light years, giving astronomers a good laboratory to study the development of massive stars. Westerlund 1's recommended photograph was made by the Hubble Space Telescope to the southern constellation of the Altar (constellation Ara). Although it is currently classified as a "super" open star rooster, Westerlund 1 may evolve into a globular star bulb with a low mass in the next billions of years.
