Star Dust Identified by Dr Nassau in Milky Way Study
Dr J J Nassau of Case School of Applied Science in Cleveland identified the Galactic Great Rift in Cygnus as a massive interstellar dust cloud about 7 000 light years away. Speaking before a joint meeting of the American Astronomical Society and the AAAS Astronomical Section, Nassau outlined long range Case Observatory work on the Milky Way. Beyond the dust cloud, obscured by it, lies a cluster of possibly thousands of blue stars up to ten times the sun’s size and about 600 times brighter, Nassau said.
