Bullseye! Astronomers discover a giant galaxy with nine rings
Yale astronomers have announced the discovery of a galaxy with nine concentric rings—the most rings ever seen in a single galaxy. At more than twice the diameter of our Milky Way, it stretches approximately 250,
Hubble Hits A Cosmic Bullseye With Stunning Shot Of A Gargantuan 9-Ringed Galaxy
NASA's Hubble Space Telescope had captured a ringed galaxy (LEDA 1313424) that not only heavily resembles a bullseye, but with nine (perhaps more) rings
Hubble Reveals Cosmic Bullet That Gave The Bullseye Galaxy Its Record-Breaking Rings
The rings are regions of higher density, where the galactic material has been pushed together by the rippling shocks. The clumping of the dust and gas triggers star formation, resulting in higher star density, which is why the rings glitter so brightly.
Straight shot: Hubble investigates galaxy with nine rings
NASA's Hubble Space Telescope has captured a cosmic bullseye. The gargantuan galaxy LEDA 1313424 is rippling with nine star-filled rings after an "arrow"—a far smaller blue dwarf galaxy—shot through its heart.
Bullseye! Hubble spots ripples in space from a galaxy collision
In a study published today by The Astrophysical Journal Letters, a research team led by Yale University’s Imad Pasha identifies nine visible ring-shaped ripples in the structure of the galaxy, formally known as LEDA 1313424. The galaxy is 567 million light years from Earth in the constellation Pisces.
Hubble Captures a Cosmic Bullseye, Revealing a Stunning Nine-Ring Galaxy
Hubble’s high-resolution imagery allowed researchers to hone in on more of the Bullseye galaxy’s rings — and helped confirm which galaxy dove through its core. Seabirds like the Northern Gannet dive straight into the ocean to catch fish,
The Bullseye Galaxy: Yale astronomers spot giant galaxy featuring nine concentric rings
The galaxy, officially named LEDA 1313424, lies approximately 567 million light-years away in the constellation Pisces.
