N44 is an emission nebula in the Large Magellanic Cloud, 170,000 light-years away. A 250-light-year superbubble, shaped by stellar winds or supernovae, hints at sequential star formation. Its glow comes from ionized hydrogen gas.

This marvelous Hubble image shows the N44 superbubble complex, a turbulent emission nebula dominated by a vast bubble some 250 ly across: the dark, starry area visible in the upper central region.

Hubble image of the nebula N44, in the Large Magellanic Cloud. It shows a "superbubble", a dark, starry void 250 light-years across at the upper centre, surrounded by clouds of bright red hydrogen gas, black lanes of dust and bright spots of massive stars. The deep blue area at about 5 o’clock around the superbubble stands out as the hottest and most active in star formation.

When multiple supernova explosions and stellar winds combine, you get something super!

Below is a raku vase inspired by the Orion–Eridanus Superbubble, where smoke, flame, and drifting starlight meet on clay.

N44 is a complex nebula filled with glowing hydrogen gas, dark lanes of dust, massive stars, and many populations of stars of different ages. One of its most distinctive features, however, is the dark, starry gap called a “superbubble,” visible in this Hubble Space Telescope image in the upper central region.

N44.
Located in the Large Magellanic Cloud, N44 nebula is approximately 1,000 light-years wide and 160,000-170,000 light-years distant.
It is an emission nebula with superbubble structure.

Stunning image of Henize 70, a luminous superbubble in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). This 300-light-year-diameter nebula showcases the impact of massive stars, their winds, and supernova explosions on shaping galactic environments. The vibrant red and blue hues depict the hot, expanding gas within the superbubble, offering a glimpse into the interplay between stellar lifecycles and galactic evolution. Credit: Josep M.

A stellar nursery shaped by destruction.

In N44, powerful winds and supernovae have carved out a vast superbubble, while new stars are forming along its edges.
Hubble has revealed nearly half a million stars in this remarkable region.

A dense field of stars fills the image, surrounded by wispy clouds of gas and dust. Pale blue and grey nebulosity forms an intricate web across the scene, with darker clouds of dust concentrated towards the lower right.

The Bean Nebula is an intricate combination of emission nebulae and a central star cluster in the Large Magellanic Cloud -- a companion galaxy to the Milky Way. Radiation pressure from the star cluster shapes the superbubble structure evident in the image. 🔭 1/2

LHA 120-N 44 Superbubble with X-rays - From Judy Schmidt (geckzilla.bsky.social) - https://flic.kr/p/22Yo4YR
X-ray data from Chandra combined with the visible and near-infrared Hubble mosaic. Light from x-rays tends to occupy the places where voids have formed, likely as a result of hot winds and supernova shock waves impacting the walls of the cavity. There is an article at the Chandra website regarding this object and what is being illustrated. You may read it here, if you wish: chandra.harvard.edu/photo/2012/n1929/ The Hubble only version is here: flic.kr/p/21xLgJx I would like to thank Jonathan McDowell for showing me that the lowest and highest energy levels must be filtered out using the event file because they are too noisy, and Brian Wolven for tagging him into the Twitter thread that resulted in the discussion. I don't often ask for help because I feel like I am bothering people, but small things like this really make a difference for me. Data from Observation ID 3356 from Proposal Number 03910326 were used to create the x-ray overlay. X-ray Emission Mechanisms and Evolution of Superbubbles Data from Proposal 14689 were used to create the Hubble image.

A slowly-expanding superbubble across the Perseus spiral arm! 🔭 #galactic

In this study led by Bingqiu Chen, published in Nature, massive OB stars were used to analyse the expansion of the Giant Oval Cavity. This feature, akin to the Phantom Bubble, has a survival timescale of 250 million years!
