image named “Hand of God “was taken during a” black-hole “hunt with NASA’s Nuclear Spectroscopic Telescope Array (NuStar) – which is able to capture the interaction between particles and gas that the collapse was thrown into space, writes NASA on its website.
B1509 located 17,000 light years away and has a magnetic field which is estimated to be 15 trillion times stronger than Earth’s magnetic field.
Provides Clues
– The hand actually shrinking in NuStar image, and thus looks more like a fist as is indicated by the blue color. The northern region, where the fingers are placed, shrinks more than the south – suggesting that the two areas are physically different.

NASA believes that the telescope NuStar is to provide new clues to the universe puzzle.
According to SkyNews, it is believed that the hand has been nicknamed “God’s hand” because it bears resemblance to Michelangelo’s Sistine Chapel, called “The Hands Of God And Adam”.
For the second time
Neutron stars are created when massive stars run out of fuel and collapses. NASA reports that this star has collapsed so much that the fog around only 19 kilometers across the surface – which describes about the incredibly dense.
This is not the first time SASA has photographed a “hand” in space. In 2009, caught telescope Chandra X-ray observatory up a similar picture.
