Berlin, Nov 26 : The Hubble Space Telescope has captured the image of a pair of stars that are two of our galaxy’s most massive stars.

They have, until recently, been shrouded in mystery, but the new image shows them in greater detail than ever before.

The image shows a pair of colossal stars, WR 25 and Tr16-244, located within the open cluster Trumpler 16. This cluster is embedded within the Carina Nebula, an immense cauldron of gas and dust that lies approximately 7500 light-years from Earth.

The Carina Nebula contains several ultra-hot stars, including these two star systems and the famous blue star Eta Carinae, which has the highest luminosity yet confirmed.

Berlin  - Car-buyers are being tugged two ways in a German debate over carbon-dioxide emissions: should they buy cars for the fast lane, or downsize to smaller cars more suited to the slow lane of German autobahns?

The dilemma came to a head when Chancellor Angela Merkel's government debated an economic stimulus package in October.

With global talks on a new climate-saving pact due next week in Poland, the dispute underlined the conflict between ecology and the economy.

Germany initially wanted to grant two-year vehicle tax rebates to buyers of all cars with sophisticated technology to reduce and purify emissions, but an outcry from environmentalists halted the plan.

"I am a pilot! ... It is a great feeling," Morgenstern said on a blog on the Red Bull website.

On Wednesday, just hours after Moeller lost his appeal before the Migration Review Tribunal, Immigration Minister Chris Evans interceded and used his discretionary powers to grant permanent residency.
