Summary

Description
English: Using ALMA, astronomers have detected the magnetic field of a galaxy so far away that its light has taken more than 11 billion years to reach us. Never before had we detected a galaxy’s magnetic field this far away. This video summarises the discovery.

Українська: За допомогою телескопу ALMA астрономи виявили магнітне поле галактики настільки далеко, що її світлу знадобилося понад 11 мільярдів років, щоб досягти Землі. Ніколи раніше ми не виявляли магнітне поле галактики так далеко. Це відео підсумовує відкриття.

Čeština: Pomocí soustavy radioteleskopů ALMA astronomové detekovali magnetické pole galaxie tak vzdálené, že jejímu světlu trvalo více než 11 miliard let, než k nám dorazilo. Jde o doposud nejvzálenější určený zdroj magnetického pole galaxie a video souhrnně popisuje tento objev.

Français : Grâce à l'ALMA, les astronomes ont détecté le champ magnétique d'une galaxie si lointaine que sa lumière a mis plus de 11 milliards d'années à nous parvenir. Jamais auparavant nous n'avions détecté le champ magnétique d'une galaxie à une telle distance.

Slovenščina: Astronomi so z ALMA (en) zaznali magnetno polje galaksije, ki je tako daleč, da je njena svetloba do nas prispela šele po več kot 11 milijardah let. Še nikoli prej nismo zaznali tako oddaljenega magnetnega polja galaksije. V tem videoposnetku je povzetek odkritja.
