N49’s Cosmic Blast Canvas

$35.95
Illuminate your space with the haunting beauty of a cosmic explosion frozen in time. Echoes of a Stellar Cataclysm features the captivating remains of a supernova—cataloged as N49—captured in intricate detail by the Hubble Space Telescope. This dramatic canvas reveals glowing filaments of shocked gas stretching across 30 light-years in the Large Magellanic Cloud, a neighboring galaxy just outside our own.
Once the fiery death of a massive star, N49 is a brilliant tangle of interstellar debris still glowing thousands of years after the explosion’s light first reached Earth. But this stellar graveyard also holds a deeper mystery. On March 5, 1979, a powerful burst of gamma rays—the most energetic light in the universe—erupted from this very region, marking the beginning of an astrophysical breakthrough.
Scientists later traced the blast to an incredibly rare object born in the explosion: a magnetar—a hyper-magnetized, rapidly spinning neutron star. This exotic remnant races through the cloud of supernova debris at over 1,200 kilometers per second, a ghost of the star that once was, now a beacon of extreme physics.
Features of this canvas:
Celestial storytelling: A vivid portrayal of destruction and rebirth across light-years of space.
High-resolution beauty: Based on data from Hubble’s powerful optics, every filament glows with the legacy of a star’s final moments.
Astrophysical wonder: Showcasing the birthplace of a magnetar—one of the most extreme objects in the known universe.
Perfect for fans of astronomy, science fiction, or the raw power of the cosmos, this canvas captures not just an image—but an epic tale written in starlight.

Available in multiple sizes. Premium canvas. Ready to hang.
This product is made especially for you as soon as you place an order, which is why it takes us a bit longer to deliver it to you. Making products on demand instead of in bulk helps reduce overproduction, so thank you for making thoughtful purchasing decisions!
