MCG 1-25-6, ZWG 35.15, ARP 142, VV 316, NPM1G +02.0225, PGC 27423Mapahttp://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/NGC_2937Mario Jaci Monteiro - As Constelacoes, Cartas CelestesColliding Galaxy Pair Takes FlightCompass and Scale Image for Arp 142What looks like a celestial hummingbird is really the result of a collision between a spiral and an elliptical galaxy at a whopping 326 million light- years away. The flat disk of the spiral NGC 2936 is warped into the profile of a bird by the gravitational tug of the companion NGC 2937. The object was first cataloged as a "peculiar galaxy" by Halton Arp in the 1960s. This interacting galaxy duo is collectively called Arp 142.http://hubblesite.org/newscenter/archive/releases/2013/23Object Names: Arp 142, NGC 2396/2397Image Type: Astronomical/IllustrationCredit: NASA, ESA, and Z.

Located 326 million light-years away, it was first cataloged in the 1960s as a peculiar galaxy. In this Hubble Space Telescope view, the celestial wonder looks more like a hummingbird next to an egg. In reality, it is a pair of galaxies that are colliding with each other. The blue galaxy once had a pinwheel shape, like that of our Milky Way. But the gravitational pull of a nearby companion galaxy has stretched it like a piece of taffy. Collisions like this were common in the early universe.Credit: NASA, ESA, G. Bacon, L. Frattare, Z.

Galaxies spend most of their life drifting through the cosmic expanse in isolation. But, every so often, two unfortunate galaxies stray a little too close to one another as is the case with Arp 142. Showcased in a stunning new image from Hubble, these two galaxies uncannily resemble a penguin guarding its egg. The galaxies are in middle of a violent merger, with clouds of gas and dust colliding at breakneck speeds and triggering bursts of star formation. http://www.spacetelescope.org/videos/heic1311a/Hubblecast 67: Of galaxies and penguins Arp 142www.spacetelescope.orgThis episode of the Hubblecast explores the violent world of galactic mergers, as shown by the cosmic duo Arp 142 in a stunning new image from the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope.Galaxies spend most of their life drifting through the cosmic expanse in isolation.
