Hubble took a picture of two galaxies colliding

As a result of collision of the galaxy “scattered” on two bright and long tail.

Space telescope Hubble took a detailed picture of the collision of two galaxies in the constellation of Cancer. As a result of collision of the galaxy “scattered” on two bright and long tail, sostojashie million stars.

According to the website the Hubble space telescope, the last observation of the motion of stars in other galaxies and in the milky Way show that столкновения24tv.ua and merging of the “star cities” is commonplace in the Universe.

Galaxy NGC 2623, which was formed as a result of the collision, in the constellation Cancer, distant from the planet Earth about 250 million years. The merger of the two galaxies began several hundred million years ago and led to the fact that they have lost their original form and turned into two giant “tadpole”. Their bright tails composed of a plurality of regions of star formation, in which are born a hundred new suns per year.

When the merge process is complete, these tails will disappear, and NGC 2623 turn into the usual “dead” elliptical galaxy, the processes of star formation which ceased due to excessively high temperaturh gas in its external boundaries that hinder the inflow of fresh intergalactic matter.
