Loop I Bubble
The Loop I Bubble is a cavity in the local interstellar medium (ISM) that abuts the Local Bubble in which the Sun is located.
Astronomers believe that the Loop I Bubble was formed by supernovae and/or stellar winds from hot OB stars in the Scorpius-Centaurus Association , some 500 light years from the Sun.
