NASA discovers two mysterious bubbles at the centre of galaxy

TECHNOLOGY. .

The two gamma-ray bubbles, which extend 25,000 light-years north and south of the galactic center, were discovered when NASA researchers were processing images captured by its Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope. NASA's Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope captures detailed pictures of the sky in every three hours. As scientists say that the bubbles could have formed from a massive burst of star formation that could have occurred in the centre of the Milky Way, creating a massive cloud of energy and gas. Or according to another theory the super-sized massive black hole at the centre of the galaxy gulped down something big, and then released an energy burp that resulted in the emergence of the bubbles.
