Scientists from the Max Planck Institute for Radio Astronomy in Germany detected a huge alcohol cloud near the center of the Milky Way Galaxy. The alcohol cloud in question has never been seen in space. largest alcohol molecule discovery was declared.
The largest alcohol cloud allowed us to witness another first:
It has been announced that the alcohol cloud in question consists of iso-propanol and normal propanol alcohol, which is used especially in hand disinfectants on Earth. with the discovery Iso-propanol alcohol was also detected in space for the first time. The region where the cloud was discovered also excited the scientific world.
The exact location of the alcohol cloud is Sagittarius A*, which is located near the supermassive black hole. Sagittarius B2 zone shared as This region is described as the ‘star birth room’ in the scientific world. Because it is known that stars form densely in this region.
That is why the discovery of alcohol in this region is of great importance. According to scientists, the discovered alcohol cloud is about how stars are formed. to learn new information can enable.
