Enrico_sw Posted September 17, 2017 Share Posted September 17, 2017 Stephan's Quintet (by Hubble) (It's a visual grouping of five galaxies. In reality, one of them is closer, but the 4 others are really forming a compact galaxy group) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enrico_sw Posted September 17, 2017 Share Posted September 17, 2017 Eta Carinae (η Carinae) is a stellar system (of at least two stars) in the consetellation of Carina (hence the name ). In 1837, started the Great Eruption! (it actually happened around 7000 years ago, but we saw it in 1837 because Eta Carinae is around 7000 light years from us ). The eruption lasted 18 years and then there was another one in 1887. One day there will be a supernova there and it will be great to see it!

Enrico_sw Posted September 17, 2017 Share Posted September 17, 2017 Cosmic Kaleidoscope! It's two clusters of galaxies colliding (4.3 billion light years away from us). Gravitational lens bend the light and distort the image . This area has most probably a lot of dark matter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
