The dust cloud was so hot it glowed orange. The largest single piece weighing about 650 kilograms was recovered from the bed of Lake Chebarkul in October by a team from Ural Federal University led by Professor Viktor Grokhovsky.
designed to create an mbrellaeffect to seal dust clouds in with spray, causing the particles to fall out of the air.
By comparing the Chandra data to prior images of dust clouds detected by the Mopra radio telescope in Australia
the researchers determined that each ring was created by the X-ray reflections off a different dust cloud.
The new Chandra data allows astronomers to make a detailed three-dimensional map of the dust clouds between Circinus X-1 and us, providing a valuable probe of the structure of the galaxy.
