Hubble Space Telescope discovers loose spiral galaxy

 Hubble Space Telescope discovers loose spiral galaxy

 Hubble Space Telescope
Astronomers a new loose spiral galaxy full of gas and dust seen in the claim, NASA / ESA hubble space telescope using.
, NASA said in a statement galaxy ESO G37 499 Hydra, which is shared with Antlia Star is located at the southern border.
Milky Way spiral arms are large amounts of gas and dust, and often in areas where new stars are constantly making.
Most feature a bright center of galaxy is elongated. bulging central core usually has the highest density of stars in the Galaxy, where usually a large group of relatively cool old stars compact, spheroidal region is packed in contains.
A common feature of many spiral galaxies running across the center of the galaxy is present. The center bars with spiral arms as a mechanism that channels gas to work, thinking, star formation is enhanced.
Recent studies suggest that ESO 499-G37 sits in the center of a small bar with a few hundred tenth year of light about the size of a typical galactic bar.
The astronomers believe that the formation of galactic bulges in small bars because they are internal to external areas from demolition can provide a mechanism can.
However, the relationship between time and still create the bulge bars in spiral galaxies is not universal feature is not clear.
This is a joint European Southern Observatory (ESO) and Uppsala Observatory, La Silla Observatory, who, Chile, ESO 1 m Schmidt telescope, used in a large part of the southern sky, looking for stars, galaxies status initiated by Map was planned, clusters, and planetary nebulae.
And infrared galaxy surveys show a high degree camera with the wide field channel was imaged using investment. Field of view is about 3.4 arcminutes wide.
