When a star explodes, it leaves behind a debris field of stellar material and high-energy particles known as a supernova remnant. Astronomers use Chandra to study these remnants that can produce intense X-ray radiation for thousands of years. Supernova remnants are responsible for seeding cloud that formed our Sun, planets, and ultimately us with elements like nitrogen and oxygen.

I'll add a piece of spam here to promote my new blog, Chicago Con.
I firmly believe in the marketplace of ideas. All visitors are welcome.
Does this mean you will stop trolling my blog and posting anti-liberal bashing rants here since you now have your own playground? ;)
