Dust rings from gamma-ray burst 221009A, Swift image
Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory image of dust rings from the afterglow of gamma-ray burst 221009A, observed an hour after it was detected. This gamma-ray burst was observed on the 9th October 2022 and was located in the direction of the constellation Sagitta, approximately 2 billion light-years away. It was the brightest gamma-ray burst ever seen. Gamma-ray bursts are high energy explosions that occur during the collapse of a massive star. The rings are formed as a result of scattered X-rays from dust layers within our galaxy in the direction of the observed burst.
