Definitions

Nebula: a cloud of interstellar gas and

dust, seen either as a luminous patch or

light or a dark hole in a bright

background. The term was coined to

describe objects that appeared fuzzy

when viewed through early telescopes.

Nuclear Fusion: two or more light

nuclei join together to form a heavier

nucleus, releasing energy in the process.

Photoevaporation: a process where

intense light from hot stars eats away the

surface of dense clouds.

Light Year: the distance light travels

in a year (6 ? 1012 or 5 trillion 900

billion miles)

Fast Facts

Age

The Eagle Nebula is two million years

old, the EGGs will live for another 10-

20,000 years.

Location

In the constellation Serpens, the Serpent,

alongside the southern Milky Way

Distance from Earth

7,000 light years

Size

Our Solar System would fit comfortably

inside an EGG. The right column is

about one light year from top to bottom.

Eagle Nebula Eagle Nebula

The three columns of dust and gas

in this Hubble Space Telescope image

are located in the Eagle Nebula.

The Nebula contains hydrogen and

microscopic dust particles, the raw

materials for building new stars.

The Eagle gets its name because

to some the Nebula resembles the

bird of prey with outstretched wings

and talons bared.

Uncovering New Stars

Off the top of this picture, there are

young, hot, massive stars that shine

very brightly. The stars? powerful

radiation heats the surrounding gas,

making it glow. This intense

radiation is responsible for sculpting

the columns; it erodes more tenuous

gas in the columns through

a process called photoevaporation.

The erosion reveals denser gas

globules surrounding newly formed

stars (see close-up, right). Scientists

call them ?Evaporating Gaseous

Globules? or EGGs.

Star Birth

Stars are born when clouds of dust

and gas collapse because of gravity.

As more and more material falls onto

the forming star, it finally becomes

hot and dense enough at its center to

trigger the nuclear fusion reactions

that make stars, including our Sun,

shine. Photoevaporation in the Eagle

Nebula has cut newly forming stars

off from the cloud feeding them.

While some of the EGGs are large

enough to eventually become stars,

others may never make it.

About the Image

The Eagle Nebula was photographed by Jeff Hester and Paul Scowen of Arizona

State University using the Wide Field and Planetary Camera 2 on board NASA?s

Hubble Space Telescope on April 1, 1995. The color picture is made up of three

separate color images: red shows light from sulfur atoms in the cool gas at the edge

of the clouds, blue shows light from ionized oxygen atoms in the hot, evaporated

halos, and green shows light from hydrogen atoms.

    • Good. I hope more people sue them for focusing on this worthless junk.
    • How about fire the guy who approved all the bad decisions? The guy who bought these studios in the first place? Oh wait, Satya is safe with his billions while the workers pay the price.
    • This had nothing to do with games. This is all about management wanting to squeeze as much money from Xbox to keep Microsoft's AI ambitions afloat. Someone has to make money to burn on AI.
    • GeekBook X16 Pro Intel Core Ultra 9 thin and light laptop gets a 17% discount by Steven Parker GEEKOM is back with a 17% discount on its top-of-the-range X16 Pro laptop. You may remember that we reviewed the X14 Pro back in February, which marked GEEKOM's debut into the ultrathin laptop segment. You can view the full specs below. GEEKOM X16 Pro Model NX14CM Dimensions 322.58 × 213.36 × 5.8 mm (12.7"L x 8.4"W x 0.23"T) Weight 997 g / 2.2 lbs Material Unibody Magnesium Alloy CPU Intel Ultra 5 125H (14C/18T, 24MB L3, 2.3-5.1 GHz, TDP 20W) Intel Ultra 9 185H (16C/22T, 24MB L3, 2.3-4.5 GHz, TDP 35W) Graphics Intel Arc graphics 8 Xe-cores @ 2350MHz 1024 shading units/stream processors (128 CUs), 8 Raytracing Cores, 64 texture mapping units, and 32 ROPs NPU Intel AI Boost, 11 TOPS / Up to 33 TOPS (CPU+NPU+GPU) Memory 32GB Dual-channel LPDDR5x 7467 MT/s Micron SODIMM Storage 1 x M.2 2280 PCIe Gen 4x4, Wodposit 1TB, 2 TB Display 16.0" IPS LCD, 2560 × 1600 (16:10) 100% sRGB, 120Hz Refresh Rate Camera 2MP 1080P 1 × Light sensor in camera module 1 × LED indicator in the camera module Windows Hello Support: No Mic 2 x Digital Mics integrated in the camera module Speakers 2 x 3813 (4Ω×2W) built in body Audio Codec: ALC269QN-VC3-GR Certificate: DTS: X Ultra Operating System Windows 11 Pro 25H2 Bluetooth Bluetooth 5.4 Wireless LAN MediaTek MT7922 M.2 Wi-Fi 6E LAN card Left I/O ports 1 x HDMI 2.0 2 x USB4 (40 Gbps) Right I/O ports 1 x USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A (5 Gbps) 1 x 3.5 mm Audio jack 1 x Camera Privacy Shutter Keyboard 78Key 1.2±0.2mm / Height 3.5±0.2mm (with backlight) White LED light in Caps Lock and Fn key Language: Default US Touch Pad Dimension: 120 x 71mm Material: Mylar Position: Middle Interface: I2C, Dualpoint button Dock Input port: 1 x Type-C 2 x USB 3.0, 1 x RJ45 1 x PD 1 x HDMI (Bio) Security Fingerprint sensor (in the power button) SD Card slot No Kensington Lock No Battery 77Wh (Input 20V, 3.25A) Power 65W PD GaN Fast Charge, USB-C to USB-C Warranty 2 years (Early Bird 1+1 Years) Deal price $1119.67 The X16 Pro is powered by the Intel Ultra 9 185H, which was released in Q4 2023 and is a 14th Gen Meteor Lake CPU designed for laptop/mobile using the Intel 4 architecture based on a 7nm process. The Ultra 9 185H features 16 cores and 22 threads running at up to 5.1 GHz. It also includes a dedicated NPU utilizing Intel AI Boost at 11 TOPS. On the graphics front, the 185H includes the still fairly capable ARC Graphics (not to be confused with the newer ARC 140T) integrated GPU with a max GPU frequency of 2350 MHz across 8 Xe-cores. It has been said that the iGPU is equivalent to the NVIDIA GeForce 3050 and GTX 1650 in gaming and synthetic benchmarks. Other highlights include an AMOLED display, LPDDR5x memory at 7467 MT/s, WiFi 6E, Bluetooth 5.4, and a fingerprint sensor built into the power button. AI PC? Although the Intel Core Ultra 9 185H includes a dedicated NPU, it's only 11 TOPS; therefore, it does not qualify as a Copilot+ PC. However, it can reach up to 33 TOPS with a combination of NPU, CPU, and GPU. As I said, although we only reviewed the X14 Pro, the unboxing is the same for the X16 Pro, which I noted in my review. The packaging is quite a nice experience. The outer box houses the X16 Pro box with a small compartment that contains the 5-in-1 Dock ($40 value), which appears to be an "Early Bird" inclusion. Upon removing the box cover, the X16 Pro is revealed sitting in a cardboard compartment with two small booklets of documentation. To the left of the X16 Pro are two cardboard compartments containing the 65W charger and Type-C USB cable. What’s In The Box 1 x GEEKOM X16 Pro Ultra-thin Laptop 1 x Type-C to Type-C cable 1.8M 1 x 65W GaN PD Fast Charger 1 x Warranty Card 1 x Thank You Card 1 x User Guide All products sold by GEEKOM receive a 3-year free Warranty from the date you receive the product. If needed, you can RMA or return locally relative to your region (the U.S. has a U.S. warehouse, mainland E.U. has a German warehouse). GEEKOM X16 Pro at GEEKOM U.S. for $1,119.67 was $1,349 (17% off) Use coupon code NWGBX1617 when checking out. This flash deal expires on July 2.
