은하, 행성, 새로운 발견: 2023년 올해의 천문학 사진작가가 선정한 수상 이미지는 다음과 같습니다.

왕립 천문대 그리니치(Royal Observatory Greenwich)는 세계 최대 우주 사진 대회의 매혹적인 우승 이미지를 공개했습니다.

올해로 15회째를 맞는 올해의 천문학 사진가 대회는 전 세계의 아마추어 우주 사진가들을 조명하는 것을 목표로 합니다.

올해 우승 사진은 독일의 Marcel Drechsler, 프랑스의 Xavier Strottner, Yann Sainty가 촬영했습니다.

안드로메다 은하 옆에 있는 이전에는 볼 수 없었던 산소 호의 이미지가 64개국에서 제출된 4,000개의 출품작 중에서 1위를 차지했습니다.

해당 사진은 2022년에 촬영된 것으로, 저자에 따르면 “완전한 사고”였다.

Drechsler는 “아무도 그것을 볼 것이라고 예상하지 못했습니다. 그래서 우리는 안드로메다 은하의 아름다운 이미지를 찍고 싶었기 때문에 그것은 예상치 못한 안드로메다라고 불립니다.”라고 Drechsler는 말했습니다.

“그리고 우리는 첫 번째 데이터를 보고 이미지 가장자리에 흐릿한 얼룩을 발견했습니다.

“우리는 ‘아니다’라는 결론에 도달했습니다. 그것은 인공물이 아닙니다. 그것은 진짜입니다. 그것은 새로운 발견입니다.”

이 이미지는 현재 초국적 협력을 통해 거대 물체를 조사하고 있는 전 세계 과학자들의 관심을 사로잡았습니다.

The spellbinding winning images from the world’s biggest space photography competition have been revealed by the Royal Observatory Greenwich.

Now in its 15th year, the Astronomy Photographer of the Year competition aims to highlight amateur space photographers from around the globe.

This year’s winning image was taken by Germany’s Marcel Drechsler, France’s Xavier Strottner, and Yann Sainty.

Their image of a never-before-seen oxygen arc next to the Andromeda galaxy came up top among 4,000 submitted entries from 64 countries.

The photograph was taken in 2022 and — according to its authors — was an “absolute accident”.

“No one expected to see it and that’s why it’s called Andromeda, Unexpected, because we wanted to take a beautiful image of the Andromeda Galaxy,” Mr Drechsler said.

“And we looked at the first data and we spotted this hazy smudge on the edge of the image.

“We came to the conclusion no, it’s not an artefact. It’s real. It’s a new discovery.”

The image has captured the attention of scientists worldwide who are now investigating the giant object in a transnational collaboration.

Here’s the winning image alongside other category winners.
