The Hourglass Nebula MyCn-18
The Hourglass Nebula MyCn-18, a unique ring formation has
long baffled mankind. But a close examination reveals several forces at work to
create this beautiful cosmic object. At the source, is a dense stellar object,
which emits a high-energy solar wind and has a massive heavy element core
containing iron responsible for an extreme magnetic field. Although, there is
enough hydrogen permeating the core of the stellar object to allow the fusion
process to continue, creating a stellar object. The incoming gravity particle
field flows towards the center of the massive object, returning to the core
through its poles, thus crowding out and diverting the magnetic particle flow.
This compresses and elongates the magnetic lines of force and allows the
particle flow to proceed outward and parallel the stellar equator. For a
reference point, observing M-18, the poles of the cosmic object dissect the
waist of the Hourglass. High-energy particles, representing the solar wind are
ejected from the cosmic object only to have their path altered by gravity, but
they release excess energy in the form of light when passing the many ribbons of
magnetic particle flows emitted from the object as their energy level shifts
from an elevated to a static state. The result is an elongated, flatten field of
nebula with its many rings lying sideways in relation to the poles that shed
light energy.
