Eta Carinae Homunculus Nebula
Source: NASA by NASA
The Eta Carinae Homunculus Nebula is a free printable 3D model from NASA by NASA. In the middle of the 19th century, the massive binary system Eta Carinae underwent an eruption that ejected at least 10 times the sun’s mass and made it the second-brightest star. You can download the STL file from the original listing below and print it at home.
About this model
In the middle of the 19th century, the massive binary system Eta Carinae underwent an eruption that ejected at least 10 times the sun’s mass and made it the second-brightest star in the sky. Now, a team of astronomers has used extensive new observations to create the first high-resolution 3D model of the expanding cloud produced by this outburst. A free 3D printable model from NASA 3D Resources. NASA models are free to download and use under the NASA media usage guidelines; NASA does not endorse any product.
