An explanation for the super-cold Boomerang Nebula
An article published in “The Astrophysical Journal” describes a research about the Boomerang Nebula, described as the coldest spot in the universe. A team led by Raghvendra Sahai of NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory used the ALMA radio telescope to understand why the outflow of materials from the star at the center of the nebula is expanding very quickly. According to the astronomers there’s a companion and the gravitational interactions between the two stars accelerated that outflow.
