Doomed Star Eta Carinae

March 27th, 2006 · No Comments

There’s no good reason for this post except to show a really cool picture of Eta Carinae. This was taken in 1996 and shows the two-bulb nebula attached to the star Eta Carinae. Astronomers feel that this star is a really good candidate for a full-blown supernova.
