| 説明 | Gamma ray bursts can unleash in a few seconds as much energy as our sun will generate over its 10-billion-year lifetime. These beams blast out of imploding stars at over 99% the speed of light.New observations from the Hubble Space Telescope have investigated the nature of the powerful gamma-ray burst GRB 190114C, depicted in this illustration, by studying its environment. Gamma-ray bursts are the most powerful explosions in the universe. They emit most of their energy in gamma rays, light which is much more energetic than the visible light we can see with our eyes. Hubble’s observations suggest that this particular burst was so powerful because the collapsing star was sitting in a very dense environment, right in the middle of a bright galaxy 5 billion light years away.Credit: NASA, ESA, and M.
