Habl je ponovo snimio Nebulu Trifid i podelio novu fotografiju povodom svoje 36. godišnjice. Novi snimak koristi unapređenu kameru WFC3 i pomaže naučnicima da prate kako mlade zvezde oblikuju okolni oblak gasa i prašine. Nebula Trifid (Messier 20) nalazi se oko 5.000 svetlosnih godina u sazvežđu Strelac, a masivne zvezde u njoj podstiču nove talase formiranja zvezda. Posmatranja Habla se danas kombinuju sa Džejms Veb podacima dok NASA priprema teleskop Nancy Grace Roman.
Habl Ponovo Slikao Nebulu Trifid — Nova Zapanjujuća Fotografija Posle Skoro 30 Godina
The crew of Artemis II captured a breathtaking image of a celestial event known as an "Earthset," in which the Earth dropped below the lunar horizon. The image is reminiscent of the iconic "Earthrise" photo that NASA astronaut Bill Anders captured in 1968 during the Apollo 8 mission that showed our planet rising on the lunar horizon.
NASA-in svemirski teleskop Habl ponovo je usmerio svoj pogled na poznatu oblast stvaranja zvezda — Nebulu Trifid — i podelio novu, zapanjujuću fotografiju povodom Hablove 36. godišnjice.
Šta prikazuje nova fotografija
U središtu snimka vidi se "glava" i "telo" rđasto obojenog oblaka gasa i prašine u kojem nastaju zvezde. NASA opisuje oblik kao podsećanje na "morski limun" ili "morsku kornjaču", a sam prizor podseća na podvodni pejzaž sa sitnim sedimentima koji lebdе kroz dubine.
Zašto je ponovni snimak važan
Habl je prvi put snimio Nebulu Trifid 1997. godine; povratno posmatranje omogućava naučnicima da uporede promene tokom vremena i bolje razumeju kako mlade zvezde utiču na okolni materijal. Ovaj put teleskop je koristio unapređenu kameru Wide Field Camera 3 (WFC3), instaliranu tokom servisne misije 2009. godine, koja ima šire polje snimanja i veću osetljivost.
Osnovne činjenice o Nebuli Trifid
Nebula Trifid, takođe poznata kao Messier 20 (M20), nalazi se otprilike 5.000 svetlosnih godina od Zemlje u sazvežđu Strelca. Region sadrži nekoliko masivnih zvezda koje najmanje 300.000 godina oblikuju okolno područje: snažni zvezdani vetrovi izduvavaju ogromne mehure gasa i praktično pobuđuju nove talase formiranja zvezda.
"Slika podseća na podvodni prizor ispunjen finim sedimentima koji leže u dubinama okeana," navodi NASA u saopštenju.
Šta nas očekuje dalje
Proces formiranja i rasipanja oblaka gasa i prašine traje milionima godina — na kraju će ostati samo zvezde. Habl je, od lansiranja 1990. godine sa svemirskog šatla Discovery, značajno doprineo razumevanju kosmosa: od proučavanja atmosfera egzoplaneta do doprinosa u otkriću tamne energije.
Posmatranja Habla se danas kombinuju sa podacima Džejms Veb svemirskog teleskopa (lansiran 2021.) kako bi se proširile mogućnosti otkrića. NASA se takođe priprema za sledeću veliku misiju — Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope — čije je lansiranje planirano već u 2026. godini.

Artemis II Commander Reid Wiseman of NASA took this stunning photograph of Earth from the Orion spacecraft's window on April 2. The image is reminiscent of the iconic "blue marble" image captured during the Apollo 17 mission in 1972.
In this new image from the Artemis II crew, NASA explains that what is depicted is the "divide between night and day, known as the terminator, cutting across Earth."
William Anders, a NASA astronaut on the historic Apollo 8 mission around the moon, took the iconic “Earthrise” photo while in lunar orbit on Dec. 24, 1968.
The first photograph of the Earth taken by an astronaut standing on the lunar surface, taken during the Apollo 11 Moon landing in 1969.
One of the most well-known photographs of Earth, the "blue marble" image was taken by the crew of the final Apollo mission (Apollo 17) as the crew made its way to the moon in 1972.
Voyager 1's 1990 photo of Earth, widely referred to as the "pale blue dot," was taken at a distance of 3.7 billion miles from the sun, making it the first photo taken beyond all the planets in our solar system. This image was created in 2020 or the 30th anniversary of the iconic picture using modern image-processing software and techniques to revisit the well-known Voyager view.
Because the International Space Station orbits so close to Earth's atmosphere (about 250 miles high,) the outpost and the astronauts who have lived aboard it have been the source of plenty of spectacular photos of our planet for 25 years. This recent photo, taken April 6, 2026, shows auroras glowing over the Indian Ocean.
NASA astronaut Chris Williams is pictured outside the International Space Station during a March 18, 2026 spacewalk with Earth in the background.
The devastating Hurricane Milton, a Category 4 storm at the time of this photograph, is pictured Oct. 8, 2024 in the Gulf of Mexico (renamed the Gulf of America) off the coast of Yucatan Peninsula from the International Space Station as it orbited 257 miles above.
The Soyuz MS-27 crew spacecraft is pictured Sept. 14, 2025 docked to the International Space Station's Prichal module as the orbital outpost soared 257 miles above a gleaming blue Atlantic Ocean, north of the Dominican Republic.
On December 16, 1992, eight days after its encounter with Earth, the Galileo spacecraft looked back from a distance of about 3.9 million miles to capture this remarkable view of the moon in orbit about Earth.
NASA celebrates Hubble’s 36th anniversary with a new image of the Trifid Nebula, a star-forming region it first captured in 1997.
