Скачать или смотреть Spiral Galaxy NGC 1309 — Hubble Space Telescope

Rich with detail, spiral galaxy NGC 1309 shines in this Hubble Space Telescope image. NGC 1309 is situated about 100 million light-years away in the constellation Eridanus.

This stunning Hubble image encompasses NGC 1309’s bluish stars, dark brown gas clouds and pearly white centre, as well as hundreds of distant background galaxies. Nearly every smudge, streak and blob of light in this image is an individual galaxy. The only exception to the extragalactic ensemble is a star, which can be identified near the top of the frame by its diffraction spikes. It is positively neighborly, just a few thousand light-years away in the Milky Way galaxy.
