PIX4613612: Barree spiral galaxy UGC 12158 - Galaxy UGC 12158 - The galaxy UGC 12158, is about 400 million light years away from Earth in the constellation Pegase. In this image obtained by the Hubble space telescope, a blue star is visible near the center of the galaxy (lower left), it is a supernova, SN 2004ef. The galaxy captured in this image, called UGC 12158, certainly isn't camera - shy: this spiral stunner is posing face - on to the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope's Advanced Camera for Surveys, revealing its structure in fine detail. UGC 12158 is an excellent example of a barred spiral galaxy in the Hubble sequence - - a scheme used to categorise galaxies based on their shapes. Barred spirals, as the name suggest, feature spectacular swirling arms of stars that emanate from a bar - shaped centre. Such bar structures are common, being found in about two thirds of spiral galaxies, and are thought to act as funnels, guiding gas to their galactic centres where it accumulates to form newborn stars. These aren't permanent structures: astronomers think that they slowly disperse over time, so that the galaxies eventually evolve into regular spirals. The appearance of a galaxy changes little over millions of years, but this image also contains a short - lived and brilliant interloper - - the bright blue star just to the lower left of the centre of the galaxy is very different from the several foreground stars seen in the image. It is in fact a supernova inside UGC 12158 and much further away than the Milky Way stars in the field - - at a distance of about 400 million light - years! This stellar explosion, called SN 2004ef, was first spotted by two British amateur astronomers in September 2004 and the Hubble data shown here form part of the follow - up observations. This picture was created from images taken with the Wide Field Channel of Hubble's Advanced Camera for Surveys. Images through blue (F475W, colored blue), yellow (F606W, c / Bridgeman Images

PIX4613873: Irregular dwarf galaxy I Zwicky 18 - Irregular dwarf galaxy I Zwicky 18 - The irregular dwarf galaxy I Zwicky 18 is located 59 million years - light in the Great Bear and extends over about 3000 years - light. The two bright white spots are star-forming regions. At the top left, another galaxy is visible. This galaxy could be interacting with I Zwicky 18. This image is the result of observations made by the Hubble Space Telescope in 2005 and 2006. Called I Zwicky 18, this galaxy has a youthful appearance that resembles galaxies typically found only in the early universe. Hubble has now found faint, older stars within this galaxy, suggesting that the galaxy may have formed at the same time as most other galaxies. I Zwicky 18 is classified as a dwarf irregular galaxy and is much smaller than our Milky Way Galaxy. The concentrated bluish - white knots embedded in the heart of the galaxy are two major starburst regions where stars are forming at a furious rate. The wispy blue filaments surrounding the central starburst regions are bubbles of gas that have been blown away by stellar winds and supernovae explosions from a previous generation of hot, young stars. This gas is now heated by intense ultraviolet radiation unleashed by hot, young stars. A companion galaxy lies just above and to the left of I Zwicky 18. The companion may be interacting with I Zwicky 18 by gravitationally tugging on the galaxy. The interaction may have triggered the galaxy's recent star formation that is responsible for the youthful appearance. Besides the bluish - white young stars, white - reddish stars also are visible in both I Zwicky 18 and its companion. These stars may be as old as 10 billion years. The reddish extended objects surrounding I Zwicky 18 and its companion are ancient, fully formed galaxies of different shapes that are much farther away. Hubble data also allowed astronomers for the first time to identify Cephe / Bridgeman Images

PIX4613348: The Small Magellanic Cloud (NGC 292) - The Small Magellanic Cloud (NGC 292) - The Small Magellanic Cloud galaxy is about 240,000 years from Earth in the southern constellation of Toucan. It's one of the closest galaxies of the Lactee Way. Two globular clusters are visible in this image, on the right the Toucan cluster, at the top of the galaxy the NGC 362 cluster. The Small Magellanic Cloud is about 210,000 light years in the constellation of Tucana. It is one of the Milky Way's nearest neighbors. The globular clusters 47 Tucana (on the right) and NGC 362 (on the upper left corner) are also visible on this image / Bridgeman Images

PIX4613539: Spiral galaxy ESO 269 - 57 in Centaurus - Galaxy ESO 269 - 57 in Centaurus - The spiral galaxy ESO 269 - 57 is about 155 million years away - light from Earth. The picture shows the complex structure of ESO 269 - 57, with an inner “” ring””, of several tightly wound spiral arms, surrounded by two outer ones that appear to split into several branches. Many blue and diffuse objects are visible - most are star - forming regions. The galaxy type is Sa (r) and its distance is about 155 million light - years. It extends over about 4 arcmin in the sky, corresponding to almost 200,000 light - years across. Many other galaxies are visible in the background. This three - colour composite was obtained with VLT ANTU and FORS1 in the morning of March 27, 1999 / Bridgeman Images

PIX4613619: Interacting Galaxies Arp 256 in the Whale - Interacting galaxies Arp 256 in Cetus - The galaxy Arp 256, also called VV 352, is about 350 million years away from Earth. It's a pair of spiral galaxies interacting. Regions of intense star formations appear in blue. Image obtained by the Hubble Space Telescope on 22 May 2002. Arp 256 is a stunning system of two spiral galaxies in an early stage of merging. The Hubble image displays two galaxies with strongly disrupted shapes and an astonishing number of blue knots of star formation that look like exploding fireworks. The galaxy to the left has two extended ribbon - like tails of gas, dust and stars. The system is a luminous infrared system radiating more than a hundred billion times the luminosity of our Sun. Arp 256 is located in the constellation of Cetus, the Whale, about 350 million light - years away. It is the 256th galaxy in ARP's Atlas of Peculiar Galaxies / Bridgeman Images

PIX4613637: Galaxy ESO 77 - 14 - Galaxy ESO 77 - 14 - The galaxy ESO 77 - 14 is about 550 million light years away from Earth in the southern constellation of the Indian. This system consists of two interacting galaxies. Image obtained by the Hubble Space Telescope on August 17, 2001. This image of ESO 77 - 14 is a stunning snapshot of a celestial dance performed by a pair of similar sized galaxies. Two clear signatures of the gravitational tug of war between the galaxies are the bridge of material that connects them and the disruption of their main bodies. The galaxy on the right has a long, bluish arm while its companion has a shorter, redder arm. This interacting pair is in the constellation of Indus, the Indian, some 550 million light - years away from Earth. The dust lanes between the two galaxy centers show the extent of the distortion to the originally flat disks that have been pulled into three - dimensional shapes.

PIX4613332: Large and Small Magellan Clouds - Large and Small Magellanic clouds - These two irregular galaxies are close to our galaxy. Visible in the southern hemisphere, they are located approximately 160,000 (Grand Cloud) and 240,000 light years (Small Cloud) / Bridgeman Images

PIX4613775: GOODS Chandra Deep Field South (CDF - S) - Image of distant galaxies obtained by the Hubble space telescope in the constellation of the furnace. Several thousand galaxies, some of which are more than 10 billion light years old, are visible in this image. Some closer galaxies also appear, including two colliding galaxies (middle left). This image is a detail (1/10th) of the complete field observed by Hubble (which contains about 25,000 galaxies) in the framework of the GOODS programme, an extensive program of study of primordial galaxies in a field of the Boreal Constellation of the Great Bear and in a field of the southern hemisphere in the constellation of the furnace. This image, taken with Hubble's Advanced Camera for Surveys, shows several thousand galaxies, many of which appear to be interacting or in the process of forming. Some of these galaxies existed when the cosmos was less than about 2 billion years old. The foreground galaxies, however, are much closer to Earth. Two of them [the white, elongated galaxies, left of center] appear to be colliding. This image represents less than one - tenth of the entire field surveyed by Hubble. The full field, consisting of about 25,000 galaxies, is part of a larger survey called the Great Observatories Origins Deep Survey (GOODS), the most ambitious study of the early universe yet undertaken with the Hubble telescope. This survey targeted two representative spots in the sky - one in the Northern Hemisphere and the other in the Southern Hemisphere. This image represents the southern field, located in the constellation Fornax. The entire GOODS survey reveals roughly 50,000 galaxies. Astronomers have identified more than 2,000 of them as infant galaxies, observed when the universe was less than about 2 billion years old. This image of the southern field was assembled from observations taken between July 2002 and February 2003. 5 days exposure / Bridgeman Images

PIX4613610: Galaxy UGC 9618 in Bovier - Galaxy UGC 9618 in Botes - The galaxy UGC 9618, also called VV 340 or Arp 302, is about 450 million years away from Earth. It is a pair of interacting spiral galaxies, VV 340A (view from the edge, bottom) and VV 340B (view from the front, top). Massive stars are formed in abundance. Image obtained by the Hubble Space Telescope in January 2002. UGC 9618, also known as VV 340 or Arp 302 consists of a pair of very gas - rich spiral galaxies in their early stages of interaction: VV 340A is seen edge - on to the left, and VV 340B face - on to the right. An enormous amount of infrared light is radiated by the gas from massive stars that are forming at a rate similar to the most vigorous giant star - forming regions in our own Milky Way. UGC 9618 is 450 million light - years away from Earth, and is the 302nd galaxy in ARP's Atlas of Peculiar Galaxies / Bridgeman Images
