Hundreds of mysterious strands found at the heart of the Milky Way
CNN
Nearly a thousand mysterious magnetic strands exist at the center of our Milky Way galaxy, according to a new telescope image. Scientists are trying to figure out the origins of these massive clusters.
The pairs and clusters of strands stretch for nearly 150 light-years in length and are equally spaced. The bizarre structures are a few million years old and vary in appearance. Some of them resemble harp strings, waterfalls or even the rings around Saturn.
