The Milky Way’s Double Bubble
When it comes to blowing bubbles, never go toe-to-toe with a galaxy

We report on Day 3 of the virtual summer AAS meeting.
This month’s undergraduate research post features a student who modeled high-energy gamma-ray emission from the Fermi Bubbles at the center of the Milky Way. Read on to find out more!
What causes the giant radio and gamma-ray bubbles inflated from our galactic center? This paper provides another good argument for star formation as the culprit.
Carretti and collaborators have found new evidence that the gigantic bubbles of emission emanating from the center of our Milky Way are the result of winds from supernova explosions, not jets from our supermassive black hole.
