  Boulder CO (SPX) Apr 03, 2025 Sagittarius C is one of the most extreme environments in the Milky Way Galaxy. This cloudy region of space sits about 200 light-years from the supermassive black hole at the center of our galaxy. Here, a massive and dense cloud of interstellar gas and dust has collapsed on itself over millions of years to form thousands of new stars. In a new study, a team of scientists used observations from NASA's James Webb Space Telescope to study Sagittarius C in unprecedented detail. The research was led by ... read more |
