Hubble Captures Stunning Image of NGC 1672
NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope has captured stunning images of the barred spiral galaxy NGC 1672, located 49 million light-years away in the constellation Dorado. Over a 15-year period, astronomers compiled six observations to create a detailed image showcasing regions of star formation and intertwined gas and dust within its spiral arms. The galactic core features extremely hot young stars emitting X-rays, and a supermassive black hole contributes to the galaxy's classification as a Seyfert galaxy. This energy is produced as matter spirals into the black hole, creating an active galactic nucleus (AGN) that can outshine surrounding stars. Additionally, the Milky Way may share similar structural characteristics with NGC 1672, potentially influencing material transport to its own central black hole. Hubble's images also highlight the broader cosmic context of distant galaxies surrounding NGC 1672.
