The photograph was compiled from 370 images taken over the past 20 years by the Chandra orbiting observatory, launched in 1999.
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has released a stunning composite image of the centre of the Milky Way galaxy.
Astronomer Daniel Wang of the University of Massachusetts said the image depicts “a rigid or energetic ecosystem at the centre of our galaxy” with remnants of supernovae, black holes and neutron stars.
According to reports, the astronomer spent a year working on the picture while he was stuck at home during the coronavirus pandemic.
