Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Spectrographs. Hubble’s Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph (STIS) captured a spectrum (right) of material ejected by a pair of massive stars called Eta Carinae, while the Wide Field and Planetary Camera 2 took an image of the billowing clouds of gas enveloping the stellar pair (left).
