Star Death Creates Red Square Nebula?

The newly discovered Red Square nebula is one of the most beautiful objects in the universe.
The nebula is similar to a giant, glowing red box in the sky, with a bright white inner core. A dying star called MWC 922 is located at the system’s center and spewing its innards from opposite poles into space.

“This spectacular event is the death of a star,” said study team member James Lloyd of Cornell University.


After MWC 922 ejects most of its material into space, it will contract into a dense stellar corpse known as a white dwarf, shrouded by clouds of its own remains.

In my opinion, this is an amazing creation. A death of a star has created a Red Square Nebula. This relates to science because it has to do with space and the making of a Nebula.

Dolphins

In east Hampton, NY on Jan. 14, a very strange inccident occured. A school of dolphins, feeding in the local bays last week, four of them died over the weekend and the others became tired and showed signs of severe pain.

On Sunday, thirty dolphins first entered the bays and rescuers slowly began to try to save a group of them who were located in a small cove.
The rescuers tried three times, but the attempt was unsuccessfull. Later, some boats decided to give it another shot, and try to save the dolphins once more. They used small devices called pingers to get their attention. Each time they neared the harbor, they got afraid and went back to the cove. They went back because they realized that the water was gettin more shallow as they became closer to the harbor.

A supervisor, Chuck Hamilton, called the next few days critical for the dolphins’ survival, because he expected that cold weather might make them more nervous and rough seas would make it harder to reach the dolphins. More than 80 dolphin rescuers, including a crew with a dolphin ambulance, were in the harbor on Sunday.

Unfortunately, the rescuers didnt find any evidence of the dolphins’ not eating on Saturday or Sunday. The team is still working on rescuing the dolphins, and I will try to let you know when they get rescued. In my opinion, this article is very interesting. I really hope that the rescuers find a way to rescue the dolphins.
