The Hubble Space Telescope has captured a spiral galaxy under the "ram pressure" inside a massive cluster of galaxies.
As gas is stripped from the galaxy, its pressure dynamics shift and either halt or boost star formation, leading to a ...
The bubbles in the Virgo galaxy cluster produce an even deeper note, 59 octaves below! The Perseus Cluster, with a total mass ...
One such collision can be seen in the lower right of the image of the Virgo cluster below. Galaxies at the center of the Virgo Cluster of Galaxies The largest nearby cluster of galaxies is the ...
The spiral galaxy in this NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope image is IC 3225. It looks remarkably as if it was launched from a cannon, speeding through space like a comet with a tail of gas streaming ...
In an image snapped by the OLI (Operational Land Imager) on Landsat 8, Mexico's most active volcano Popocatépetl can be seen ...
The universe is filled with countless galaxies, but some are much larger than others. Recently, NASA has captured stunning ...
Here are seven incredible galaxy cluster images captured by NASA that highlight the awe-inspiring wonders of the universe.
M90 sits among the galaxies of the relatively nearby Virgo Cluster, and its orbit took M90 on a path near the cluster's center about 300 million years ago. The density of gas in the inner cluster ...
The galaxy, IC 3225, is located about 100 million light-years from Earth and is a member of a large group of galaxies known as the Virgo Cluster. A new image from the Hubble Space Telescope ...
