NASA revealed a photo of a cosmic Christmas tree, complete with decorations. Check out the stunning image!

NASA has released a stunning image of a star cluster known as the "cosmic Christmas tree." This phenomenon, which truly resembles a festive tree, has been observed by experts for many years.

The "cosmic Christmas tree" is located 2,500 light-years away from Earth. This information was reported on NASA's website.

It is known that the image of the "cosmic Christmas tree" was created using data from NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory in Alabama, along with optical images captured by astrophotographer Michael Clow from Arizona.

The "cosmic Christmas tree" is a cluster of young stars aged between one and five million years. In the photo, green gas clouds in a conical shape strongly resemble an evergreen tree. Tiny specks of white, blue, purple, and red light, which are stars within the cluster, adorn the structure, transforming the cloud into a festive cosmic Christmas tree.

The spectra of red, purple, blue, and white colors were captured by NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory, while the green was recorded by Michael Clow's telescope.

It is known that the "cosmic Christmas tree" was first discovered by astronomer William Herschel back in 1784. The cluster is located 2,500 light-years from Earth and is formed by young stars no older than five million years.

As a reminder, scientists continue to study Mars. Following the latest hypothesis regarding where the atmosphere of the "Red Planet" has disappeared, researchers have encountered a new mystery. The NASA Mars Perseverance rover photographed mysterious green traces on the planet's surface. It detected greenish spots beneath the top layer.

Previously, "Telegraph" reported that a mission for the largest probe ever developed by NASA will launch in October. The journey to Jupiter will take 5.5 years, and the probe will cover 2.9 billion kilometers.
