This work is based on Chandra observations of the remains of a supernova called Cassiopeia A

Most of the ALMA test observations used to create this image were made using only twelve antennas working together — far fewer than will be used for the first science observations — and much closer together as well

The jets shoot through space for millions of trillions of miles. This image, taken by the Hubble Telescope, was originally released in November 2012. Image Credit: NASA, ESA, S. Baum and C.
