Gullieuszik and the GASP teamsorae – Spiral arms that seem to melt into the pitch-black universe Spiral galaxy “JW39” photographed by the Hubble Space Telescope This is “Spiral galaxy “JW39” (IC 4141), which sorae introduced in an article on May 22, 2023. JW39, located approximately 900 million light-years away in the direction of the constellation Coma, is one of the galaxies that make up the galaxy cluster A1668. Surrounded by a ring of dust, JW39’s bright center is surrounded by wide spiral arms. The observation of JW39 was carried out as part of a study on star formation in a galaxy called the “Jellyfish Galaxy.” Jellyfish galaxies are some galaxies that have a striated structure similar to the tentacles of a jellyfish, and the tentacles are thought to have been formed when gas was slowly stripped away from the galaxy.Read original article
