Fermi Bubbles Our Galaxy’s Giant Gamma Ray Mystery

The video explores the Milky Way's Fermi Bubbles, discovered in 2010, which are massive structures emitting gamma rays. These bubbles are not visible to the naked eye and require specialized equipment like NASA's Fermi Gamma Ray Space Telescope for observation. Two main hypotheses explain their origin: the black hole hypothesis, suggesting they result from activity around the galaxy's central black hole, and the star formation hypothesis, proposing they are linked to star-forming regions. Both hypotheses have supporting evidence, but further research is needed to determine the true cause.
