Galaxy is located at a distance of 400 million light years from Earth.
The orbiting Hubble telescope took a picture of the galaxy, which is located at a distance of 4 million light years from us and it is not like any other.
Scientists shocked by the speed and massiveness of the galaxy UGC 12591. Melon obtained indicate that the found mass of the galaxy exceeds the indicators of the milky Way four times. The speed of rotation is 1.8 million kilometers per hour. These figures are incredible.
But the interest the galaxy UGC 12591 caused not only by its size but its unusual shape. All known galaxies spiral, elliptical or lenticular. This galaxy and lenticular and spiral.
The galaxy rotates around its axis with incredible speed, in addition, its shape in space can change. This phenomenon scientists yet do not understand, but research is ongoing.
