The NASA Hubble telescope was able to find out the reason why this super-red hypergiant star suddenly dropped. What makes this view unusual is that this space body is 300,000 times brighter and has more violent radioactivity compared to the solar system sun.

Billions of old stars cause a diffused glow of the expanded central bulge in the Sombrero Galaxy, in this photo taken February 22, 2000. Even with a small telescope pointed towards the Virgo constellation, a light that 50 million years coming out. from the distant galaxy. The very center of the Sombrero shines across the electromagnetic spectrum, and is thought to have a large black hole.
According to the latest report from NASA, the star that NASA is currently focusing on is called VY Canis Majoris, which is one of the big stars in the universe. It is also covered in large clouds of dust.
The VY Canis Majoris is also larger, more aggressive, and has a higher density compared to the Betelgeuse star, which also disrupted the international space agency’s journey back in 2020.
NASA explains why VY Canis Majoris escaped
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration said this hypergiant spacecraft is experiencing longer, lower-lying times compared to Betelguese. But now, NASA was able to find the reason behind the mysterious space event, thanks to its Hubble Telescope, which helped unravel other space mysteries.

This NASA image shows a ladder-like structure inside a dying star. This new image, provided by NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope, reveals exciting new details about one of the most unusual nebulae known in our Milky Way. Cataloged as HD 44179, this nebula is called the “Red Rectangle” because of its unique shape and color as seen by ground-based telescopes.

“VY Canis Majoris behaves a lot like Betelgeuse on steroids,” Roberta Humphreys, a psychologist at the University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, explained through NASA Gov.’s official website.
Previously, NASA’s Hubble Telescope suggested that Betelguese’s sudden release was caused by the gaseous outflow that could have created dust. Scientists and researchers of the space agency said that VY Canis Majoris also has the same activity.
“In VY Canis Majoris we see something similar, but at a much larger scale. A large eruption of a material corresponding to the fashion is very deep, probably due to dust that will ‘blocking light from the star for a while, “Humphreys said.
The astronaut said NASA wants to find out why it dropped so suddenly because it is one of the largest stars the space agency has ever recorded.
Other reasons why it is in decline
VY Canis Majoris barks 100 times larger than Betelguese. This means that it loses more mass compared to the other advanced star. On the other hand, the mass of this celestial body is twice the size of Jupiter, which is very small compared to the Sun and other stars. You can click here of you for more information.
