Image of “Galaxy NGC 1961,” a spiral galaxy from NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope. It is about 180 million light years from Earth.
On October 19, 2022, the National Astronomical Research Institute (NASA) released data from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), the latest image from the Hubble Space Telescope, which is a picture of the galaxy NGC 1961. spiral galaxy by specifying the details that
This beautiful outstretched galaxy NGC 1961 It’s the newest image from NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope. and the blue glow of young stars that illuminate the rotating arms around the center of the galaxy.
NGC 1961 is a spiral galaxy. There is a band of stars near the center that is not very bright. It is therefore classified as a “barred” and “non-barred” spiral galaxy, approximately 180 million light-years from Earth in the constellation Giraffe. (Camelopardalis) at the center of the galaxy is brighter than other regions.
This is because a supermassive black hole is strongly attracting the surrounding material. causing the release of particles and electromagnetic waves and is part of the galactic evolution process.
Astronomers call the center of these galaxies the “Active Galactic Nuclei” or “AGN.” Some galaxies can have AGNs that are brighter than the entire galaxy.
Data from Hubble cameras processed into this photograph. Born from research on 2 topics: study of galaxies in the Arp catalog that has never been collected before. and the study of stars that could end in supernovae
