Milky Way Splashes in Radio Color

Imagine seeing our galaxy in colors you’ve never witnessed before. Thanks to astronomers from the International Centre of Radio Astronomy Research, we now have the largest low-frequency radio color image of the Milky Way. This dynamic image, crafted over 40,000 hours using supercomputers, reveals our galaxy in unprecedented detail, shedding light on the birth and death of stars. “This vibrant image delivers an unparalleled perspective of our galaxy at low radio frequencies,” said Silvia Mantovanini. The image goes beyond just being beautiful—it helps solve mysteries about supernova remnants and pulsars. As Associate Professor Natasha Hurley-Walker puts it, it unveils cosmic chapters that were previously unread. Prepare your eyes for a stellar feast where each hue tells a story of the universe!
