🪐 In the constellation Carina, the galaxy ESO 580-49 was the site of an unusually long gamma-ray burst in 2013—lasting over 7 hours, far exceeding the typical seconds-long flashes seen in most bursts. Gamma-ray bursts are colossal explosions from massive stars collapsing or merging, sending out jets of the most energetic light in the universe, and the event in ESO 580-49 shows just how varied and powerful these cosmic blasts can be. ✨ #gamma⚡#ESO58049⚡#explosions⚡#nasa⚡#galaxy⚡#stars⚡#astronomy⚡#universe⚡#cosmos⚡#space 👉subscribe Universe Mysteries
