Scientists were stunned to discover these mysterious "structures" as they are also called. Video included in article.
"These one-dimensional cosmic threads are hundreds of horizontal or radial filaments — slender, elongated bodies of luminous gas that potentially originated a few million years ago when outflow from Sagittarius A*, the Milky Way’s central supermassive black hole, interacted with surrounding materials, according to a study published Friday in The Astrophysical Journal Letters. The filaments are relatively short in length, each measuring 5 to 10 light-years."

So many new discoveries. Have laugh, so many thought they were so close to having it all figured out.
Yes they do think that...until they discover they don't know everything about everything. Imagine what scientists 50, even 25 years from now will find out they didn't know and previously had wrong. :LOL:
