At about 60 million light years from Earth, the Great Barred Spiral Galaxy NGC 1365 is beautifully captured in this image. NASA/ ESA Hubble Space Telescope. Located in the constellation Fornex (The Furnace), the blue and fiery orange vortices show us where the stars have just formed and the dusty sites of future star nurseries.

On the outer edge of the image, enormous star-regions can be seen inside NGC 1365. Bright, light-blue regions indicate the presence of hundreds of baby stars forming by calling gas and dust inside the galaxy’s outer arm.

This Hubble image was captured as part of a joint survey with a large millimeter / submillimeter array.Alma) In Chile. This survey will help scientists understand how the diversity of the galaxy’s atmosphere is observed in nearby universes, influencing the formation of stars and star clusters such as NGC 1365 and previous ESA / Hubble pictures such as NGC 2835 and NGC 2775. We expect more than 100,000 gas clouds and star-forming regions Milk GangaThe FANG survey is expected to shed light on many of the links between cold gas clouds, star formation and the overall shape and morphology of galaxies.
