Answer to Question 1

The Local Bubble is a large region, approximately 100 parsecs across, of lower density interstellar gas. This region was likely carved out by a supernova some 300,000 years ago. The gas is much thinner than the surrounding interstellar medium, possibly only 5000 atoms per cubic centimeter.

Answer to Question 2

Spitzer, ALMA, and Hubble
