Reuben's galaxy

Astronomers Have Now Discovered An Unusually Large Spiral Galaxy That Could Quite Possibly Challenge A Lot Of Things We Thought We Knew About Spiral-Shaped Galaxies As Of Now It Has Unofficially Been Named As Rubin's Galaxy After Vera Rubin's Observation Of Ugc 2885 The Galaxy Features A Spiral Structure Dusty Arms Pink Signatures Of Ionized Hydrogen Blue Glittering Stars Along The Arms And An Undisputed Flat Even Disc What Is Truly Spectacular Is That The Formation Of This Galaxy Is Thought To Be Either By Gas Accretion Minor Mergers Of Galaxies Or Even Both It Is Somewhat Of A Cosmic Rarity And When A Study Was Conducted By A Group Of Researchers Using The Hubble Space Telescope They've Found More Evidence Of Gradual Accretion Of Gas Even The Environment Surrounding The Behemoth Galaxy Does Not Have Any Large Structures That Could Have Possibly Been The Reason For Its Extended Spiral Structure Reuben's Galaxy Is Truly Enormous And It Is One Of The First Galaxies In The Universe That Is Relatively Isolated Having One Stable Nucleus And Relatively Slow Star Formation It Is Truly A First Of Its Kind Comparable Only To The Pinwheel Galaxy And There May Not Be Another Quite Like It .

 


The Hidden Galaxy

One Of The Most Mysterious Of Them All The Hidden Galaxy Also Called Ic342 It Is Proven To Be A Difficult Target To See And Study Lying Just Near The Equator Of The Milky Way's Disk Here The Sky Is Very Thick With Cosmic Ass Bright Stars And A Whole Lot Of Dust Making It Difficult To See This Spiral-Shaped Galaxy The Galaxy Is Said To Be Only 10.7 Million Light Years Away From Earth Which Is Relatively Closer To Us Than The Others The Colorful Images Of The Galaxy Prove That It Is Actively Producing Stars And Could Possibly Be One Of The Brightest In The Sky But It Is So Hard To Actually Spot It's Not Easy To Tell The Fact That We Are Unable To Fully Study And Observe This Galaxy Even Though It Is Very Near To Us Just Like The Andromeda And The Triangulum Galaxy But Much Larger Than Them Just Adds To The Intrigue Recent Hubble Photos Have Even Shown How Bright It Is Against The Dark Sky Glittering Like Diamonds With Some Reddish Cloud Formations The Hidden Galaxy Is Certainly An Unusual Galaxy That We Hope To Learn More About .

 

Cosmic Yeti

The Discovery Of This Galaxy Was One Of The Most Exciting Finds For Astronomers And Scientists As This Monstrous Galaxy Happens To Be Very Very Old At First It Was Extremely Difficult For The Scientists To Make Out The Old Galaxy Because It Seemed To Almost Be Hidden And Also Not Having Any Light That Was Linked To Any Known Galaxy Upon Further Observation And Close Study They Soon Discovered That This Is In Fact A Galaxy And A Very Mature One Calculations Have Shown That Light From The Galaxy Took About 12.5 Billion Years To Reach Planet Earth Which Means That This Galaxy Could Possibly Have Been Formed Roughly About 2 Billion Years After The Big Bang This Strange Space Yeti As It Is Fondly Being Called Is So Much More Than Some Cool New Discovery But Could Potentially Answer Some Really Big Questions In Cosmology That Have Been Plaguing Us For Years It Is Said To Be Huge And Monstrous And Could Possibly Be Shooting Out New Stars At 100 Times The Rate Of The Milky Way For Years This Galaxy Has Been Hidden Right There Amidst The Dust And Debris Of Space But Now That We Know It's There Astronomers Are Hopeful That The James Webb Telescope Will Be Able To Peer Through The Dust Veil And Allow Us To Learn How Big This Galaxy Really Is And How Fast It's Growing .

 

Space Candy

In Terms Of The Galaxies Nc 2336 Happens To Have It All It Is The Perfect Trifecta It's Big Beautiful And Blue It Has Been Given The Title Of The Most Beautiful Galaxy Ever Discovered And We Can't Really Disagree Images From The Hubble Telescope Clearly Show The Beauty And Sheer Extravagance Of This Barred Spiral Galaxy Stretching Out About 200 000 Light Years Across And 100 Million Light Years Away In The Constellation Of Camilo Pardales It's Safe To Say That If Space Had Its Very Own Beauty Contest This Galaxy Would Be The Clear Winner It's Not The Biggest Galaxy Ever Discovered But It Definitely Leans Towards The Larger Side With Large Spiral Arms Adorned With Young Stars Each Visible With Their Luminous Blue Light It's Not Hard To Know Why This Galaxy Is So Special And Stands Out Among The Rest At The Center Of The Galaxy The Reddish Color Comes From The Older Stars German Astronomer Wilhelm Temple Discovered It Back In 1876 And Named It The Quintessential Galaxy Using Only An 11-Inch Telescope Too Bad That It's So Far Away That Even If We Were Able To Make A Spaceship That Could Travel At The Speed Of Light It Would Take Us At Least 100 Million Years To Reach This Galaxy In Other Words Not Even Our Ancestors Were Alive At The Time That The Light Reaching Earth From This Galaxy Today Was Emitted By The Galaxy .

 

The Weird Neighbor

It's Almost Unheard Of That Larger Galaxies Could Be Both Elliptical And Spiral At The Same Time But Then Again Space Is A Strange Place And Centaurus A Proves Just That This Odd Galaxy Lies In The Constellation Of Centaurus From Which It Derives Its Name And Happens To Be Just 12 Million Light Years Away From Earth Centaurus A Is Filled With Thick Dust As Seen In The Images Of The Dark Energy Camera In Chile Images Reveal The Warping In Its Disk And Its Magnetic Fields Which Seem To Point Towards The Fact That It May Have Had A Massive Collision With Another Galaxy In The Past Which Has Left Its Mark On Centaurus A It Has A Massive Active Black Hole Right In The Center Which To Put Into Perspective Is About 55 Million Times The Mass Of The Sun In Fact The Black Hole Has Its Very Own Colossal Jets Expanding About Thousands Of Light Years Into Space As It Actively Devours Whatever Material Comes Near It These Plasma Jets Are So Bright And Because It's So Close To Earth It's Very Impressive To Observe And Convenient To Study Discovered Way Back In The Year 1826 It Is Still Actively Being Studied To This Day As There Is Still Lots Of Debate On The Galaxy's Fundamental Properties What's Really Cool Too Is The Fact That It Has Its Very Own Dwarf Galaxies Orbiting Around It Similar To How The Planets Orbit Around The Sun In Our Galaxy We May Actually Have A Lot More In Common With Centaurus A Than We Thought I Often Wonder If There Are Some Species On Centaurus A Eagerly Watching Earth Well As Long As This Galaxy Doesn't Plan On Chowing Down On The Milky Way Any Time Soon It's Totally Fine With Me So What Do You Think Which Of These Galaxies Is Your Favorite Do You Know.
