Hubble at 100 M Light Years
At this distance our famous Hubble space camera is still taking some pretty amazing photos.
This Hubble Space Telescope
image shows the peculiar galaxy NGC 3256. The galaxy is about 100
million light-years from Earth and is the result of a past galactic
merger, which created its distorted appearance. As such, NGC 3256
provides an ideal target to investigate starbursts that have been
triggered by galaxy mergers.
