The US space agency “NASA” and the European Space Agency have revealed imaginary images of a group of galaxies, including a large ring-shaped galaxy, known as “Cartwheel” and in Arabic as the Cartwheel.
and benefitsNASAThrough its official website, the images were taken from the Webb telescope, which operates in medium infrared (MIRI), for a group of galaxies, including the wheelbarrow.
What is a cartwheel galaxy?
NASA explained that the galaxy is 500 million light years away from our galaxy, within the “Sculptor” constellation, which consists of a bright inner ring and an active outer ring.
The outer ring contains many stars, and the dusty region between them reveals many stars and star clusters.
Does it resemble the Milky Way?
Mid-infrared light captured by MIRI reveals minute details about these dusty regions and young stars within the Cartwheel Galaxy, which are rich in hydrocarbons and other chemical compounds, as well as silicate dust much like dust on Earth.
What are the components of a fictional galaxy?
And about the components of the galaxy, “NASA” stated that young stars, many of which are located in the lower right part of the outer ring, contribute to the activation of the surrounding hydrocarbon dust, which leads to an orange glow.
On the other hand, the clearly defined dust between the core and the outer ring, which inspires the galaxy’s name, is mostly silicate dust.
In its report, the agency explained that the smaller spiral galaxy, located in the upper left part of the cart wheel, shows much of the same behavior; It shows a great deal of star formation.
