Hubble sees light and dust in a nearby starburst galaxy
The Hubble Space Telescope has taken an image of a small, sparkling hook in the dark sky — a beautiful object is known as J082354.96+280621.6, or J082354.96 for short. It is a starburst galaxy, so named because of the incredibly (and unusually) high r… Continue reading
