NASA scientists released Friday’s image, which was shared by the European Space Agency and NASA. It shows two merging galaxies.
The galaxy merger Arp-Madore 417-391671,000,000 light-years from Earth, it is found in the constellation Eridanus.
It was captured by the Hubble Space telescope and is the result two galaxies being distorted by gravity, then twisted into a ring.
The cores of the two were left side-by side.

In this NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope image, the spotlight is on the galaxy merger Arp-Madore 417-391. The Arp–Madore catalogue contains a wide range of peculiar galaxies that are scattered across the southern sky. This includes both subtly interacting and spectacular colliding galaxies.

This scene was captured by the telescope’s Advanced Camera for Surveys. The ESA stated that the telescope is optimized for this purpose. Hunt for galaxies, and clusters of galaxy starsIn the ancient universe.
The Arp-Madore catalog is a collection of strange galaxies spread across the southern sky.
