Galaxy captured by Hubble: beauty, mystery and power of the cosmos in large format
Nasa. LARGE FORMAT. This galaxy captured by the HUBBLE telescope appears to be the subject of a magnificent photographic painting. Its dark corridors of dust and diffuse glow give the galaxy the appearance of a halo in the void of space. If this galaxy paints a picture of serenity, it's actually quite the opposite. It is one of the brightest lenticular galaxies known, a category that lies somewhere between spirals and ellipticals. It has hosted two known supernova explosions, one in 1969 and the other in 1994, and is known to have a colossal supermassive black hole at its center with the mass of 450 million Suns. 2014.
