1 00:00:08,320 --> 00:00:11,320 The evolution of Eta Carinae 2 00:00:12,340 --> 00:00:19,060 Hubble has been imaging the dynamic Eta Carinae double star system for over two decades. 3 00:00:21,260 --> 00:00:29,680 Eta Carinae exploded violently in the 1840's, throwing gas and dust into space in dipolar bubbles. 4 00:00:30,080 --> 00:00:40,020 The explosive double star system resides 7500 light-years away and has been observed in various wavelengths... 5 00:00:40,600 --> 00:00:49,880 ...providing astronomers with insights into the system's evolution and changing characteristics over time. 6 00:00:50,980 --> 00:00:59,100 The latest observation shows that the spectacular display is still ongoing and reveals details that have never been seen before. 7 00:01:01,420 --> 00:01:09,980 This new view was created using Hubble's Wide Field Camera 3 to map warm magnesium gas glowing in ultraviolet (shown in blue). 8 00:01:14,020 --> 00:01:17,140 Translated by Bethany Downer.
