Forbes magazine has compiled a rating of places in the universe, the sight of which scares people.
The leader of the list is the Dark Nebula SH2-136, located 1200 light years from Earth. As a result of complex processes of star formation, cosmic dust clouds of various shapes and sizes have appeared there. Faintly illuminated by stars, they resemble ghosts. Therefore, SH2-136 is most often referred to as the Ghost Nebula.
The second place is taken by the plerion called "The Hand of God". It is a nebula powered by a pulsar wind (a celestial body that emits radio waves in the form of pulses).
A pulsar known as PSR B1509-58 or B1509.
The third position belongs to NGC 246 - the planetary nebula "Skull" in the constellation Cetus.
Planetary Nebula & quot; NGC 246 & quot; in the constellation Whale.
The top ten also includes the cloud of interstellar gas IRAS 05437 + 2502, the nebula NGC 2080 ("Ghost's Head"), the Perseus galaxy cluster in X-rays, the "Face on Mars" hill in Kydonia, the near-Earth asteroid 2015 TB-145, the nebula NGC 3918 ("Eye of Sauron"), as well as a group of three galaxies ESO 593-IG 008 ("Bird").
