The Hubble Space Telescope has observed two galaxies that appear to be bridged together. The observation has been added to a collection of scientists.
He started his activities in 1990 and is slowly approaching his retirement. Hubble Space TelescopeIt has enabled many important space explorations to date. Although Hubble is preparing to leave its place to James Webb, it still continues to make active observations.
Hubble, which only recently allowed us to see the last lights of a star, finally enabled us to see an interesting cosmic object and event. space telescope, connected by a ‘bridge’ took a picture of two galaxies.
Two galaxies connected by a bridge:
The two galaxies we see in the photo above are about 200 million light-years from Earth.Harp 248It is located in the triad galaxy community called ‘. The structure that we see between the two galaxies, which looks like a bridge, is home to many stars and a large amount of dust.
The bridge between the two galaxies is formed due to the gravitational force exerted by the galaxies against each other. This structuretidal tail‘ is named.
This observation, shared by the European Space Agency on Nov. 4, shows strange and spectacular looking galaxies ‘gathering together’.A Catalogue of Southern Peculiar Galaxies and Associations‘ was made for the collection. Each structure in the collection will be examined closely in the future with other space telescopes and different instruments in these telescopes.
