Cosmic bubbles are blowing up earlier than expected, and research from the Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy (SOFIA) can help explain why.

Key Points: 
  • Cosmic bubbles are blowing up earlier than expected, and research from the Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy (SOFIA) can help explain why.
  • These protostellar outflows are also interacting with the bubble's shell, allowing the researchers to study the process in more depth.
  • This process is important for astronomers to study because of the role it plays in the dynamics of bubbles like Orion's Veil.
  • SOFIA was therefore unique in its ability to reveal this interaction, thanks to its spectral resolution and its ability to resolve the ionized carbon around protostars.

The winds from the Trapezium stars blow a bubble of dust and gas in the area in front of them, called Orion's Veil.

Key Points: 
  • The winds from the Trapezium stars blow a bubble of dust and gas in the area in front of them, called Orion's Veil.
  • The majority of Orion's Veil is sparse, with most of its gas lying in the bubble's wall.
  • Shaped like a "U" lying on its side, the protrusion extends well beyond Orion's Veil shell.
  • "When you breach the Veil shell, you effectively start stirring a cosmic soup of gas and dust by adding turbulence," Kavak said.
