"Bork, bork, bork!" is an example of the Swedish chef's own personal use of the Swedish language.
It's a shame that they didn't monitor his ear jets in false color IR.

The APOD would have been less aesthetically pleasing with the colors reversed, IMO.
Yeah, right. Because people like to think that red is a "hotter" color than blue, so it "makes sense" that the central, hotter part of the jet is red, while the outer, cooler part is blue... right? :roll:

There is one more thing: the colours* of stars.
Even the two colour-filters image here shows which stars are colder: the amberish ones.
The few foreground stars here show that the colder stars are usually dimmer, but only if the mapping IR wavelengths to RGB subpixels is monotonic.

Now the background stars that I guess are in Milky Way's core 20-30 kly away show no such correlation. I wonder why.

We're seeing different processes in these wavelengths. If anything, our intuition is likely to fail us. I prefer to depend upon informed reason, meaning that I know the wavelengths and I know the color assignments.

There's no obvious reason that they shouldn't. If the goal is clarity, it's entirely possible to map the colors in an arbitrary fashion.

Lots of strange posts today that I have failed to understand, but I'll second the question about the "fuzzball" appearance of the stars. They all look like little globular clusters! And there is not a diffraction spike to be found. I guess it must be due to the adaptive optics system?

<<The siemens (symbol: S) is the derived unit of electric conductance, electric susceptance, and electric admittance. Conductance, susceptance, and admittance are the reciprocals of resistance, reactance, and impedance respectively; hence one siemens is redundantly equal to the reciprocal of one ohm (Ω−1). The 14th General Conference on Weights and Measures approved the addition of the siemens as a derived unit in 1971. The unit is named after Ernst Werner von Siemens.

Another name for the siemens is the mho. As the reciprocal of one ohm, it is the word ohm spelled backwards, at the suggestion of Sir William Thomson (Lord Kelvin) in 1883. NIST's Guide for the Use of the International System of Units (SI) refers to the mho as an "unaccepted special name for an SI unit", and indicates that it should be strictly avoided. The inverted capital omega symbol (℧), while not an official SI abbreviation, is less likely to be confused with a variable than the letter 'S' when writing the symbol by hand. The usual typographical distinctions (such as italic for variables and roman for units) are difficult to maintain. Likewise, it is difficult to distinguish the symbol 'S' (siemens) from the lower-case 's' (seconds), potentially causing confusion.>>

I wonder if the dark stripe lining the bottom visual edge of the jet to the left belongs of the lobe.
If, in fact, the dust eclipsing the new-born star in our line of sight belongs to one lobe.
Then the lobes must be shaped like a propeller

Even more doubtful, but can the black (the absence of the stars of Milky Way's core at 20-30 kly) at the bottom right of the posted image belong the right lobe?

A pair of jets is a sign predicting the end of the accretion disk, because the accretion is running away.
But M87* still got a pair jets, however thin, after billions of years after it had blown away the gas disk and made M87 an elliptic galaxy.
That's how they do things there: no disk for the galaxy, but still feeding the accretion disk for the central supermassive black hole.

As to why the baby star is emitting jets, I guess it must be because it is still accreting matter and has an accretion disk. It would be emitting jets for the same reason that some black holes are emitting jets, because they have an accretion disk that is accreting matter.


So what do the colors of the APOD mean? Don't ask me. I have no idea. All I'm sure of is that the colors are not "true" or optical ones, and therefore they don't mean anything to me.

They seem to say that this is past Herbig-Haro proto-star.
But why the jetting star has to be young rather than a dying old star, I wonder.

And I wonder does the dark stripe lining the bottom visual edge of the jet to the left — belong to that jet.

By the way, the two jets are a nice pair of Firefox tails, are not them

I hope some more of you pros will add to the information. What are the colors in the jets indicating? Why are the stars "fuzz balls" instead pf producing spikes? Links indicate this may be at least a triple star system. This is a fascinating photo that generates a lot of questions.
