On this day in 1999, @chandraxray released its "First Light" image of Cassiopeia A. Cas A is the remnant of a star that collapsed about 300 years ago and is 10 light years wide. The X-ray image shows an expanding shell of hot gas from the supernova remnant.

Chandra Observatory @chandraxray
Today Chandra is studying a not so itsy bitsy spider that's making big waves. Located about 3,000 light-years from Earth, the Red Spider Nebula is home to one of the hottest stars known. The star produces powerful stellar winds, generating waves about 100 billion kilometers high.
