A new Chandra image shows the famous Carina Nebula with 14,000 stars and a diffuse X-ray glow.
Over 1.2 million seconds -- nearly two weeks -- of Chandra observing time went into creating this mosaic of 22 different pointings.
Evidence shows that many massive stars in Carina have self-destructed in supernova explosions.
