Description
A colorful abstract museum quality nebula image makes a wonderful gift idea for the astronomer or fine art collector. Photographs from space make an amazing visual statement in your home, office or school!
This image of a pair of interacting galaxies called Arp 273 was released to celebrate the 21st anniversary of the launch of the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope. The distorted shape of the larger of the two galaxies shows signs of tidal interactions with the smaller of the two. It is thought that the smaller galaxy has actually passed through the larger one.
