Hello friends,
Today I will talk about something very special about our solar system. Recently scientists found an ultraviolet glow that came from the edge of our solar system. The New Horizons spacecraft has found a glow of hydrogen wall which represents the influence of sun on our solar system.
The spacecraft is equipped with ultraviolet telescope for searching the sign of hydrogen wall at the edge. As the sun moves in the galaxy, it regularly produces constantly charge particles which is called the solar wind, and this inflates a bubbles around the solar system called the heliosphere. The distance between the sun and the hydrogen wall is 100 times farther than earth from the sun. When solar wind particles collide with uncharted hydrogen atoms, it makes hydrogen atoms slow and it creates a wall which scatter ultraviolet light in a distinctive way
These scattering light was seen 30 years before by 2 Voyager spacecraft. And one of those reached far away from heliosphere and pushed away into interstellar space.
The New Horizons spacecraft is positioned in place from where it can double check the Voyager's observation. From 2007 the New horizon spacecraft has scanned 7 times the ultraviolet sky.
The space scientist Randy Gladstone said that it takes decades to observe the change in ultraviolet light and understand it. There is so much more ultraviolet light farther from the sun, which could be coming from an unknown source farther away in the galaxy.
If these data are able to distinguish the hydrogen wall than this will help to figure out the shape and variability of solar system boundary. After New horizon there is another spacecraft which is ready to continue the work of New Horizon's work which hopefully work for 10 to 15 years from now.
If light fade from some place then it may have left the wall or if the light never fade the it's source could coming from somewhere else from deeper in space
• What do you think what is the source of this ultraviolet light coming from?
• And what do you thik if light stopped lighting?
• What is the use of this hydrogen wall on the edge of the universe?
- what do you think friends let me know in the comments below...
Thank you friends,,..
