EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing beauty of Galaxy NGC 1291, a spiral galaxy located in the constellation Eridanus. The optical image captures the unique ring-shaped appearance of this celestial wonder, which is formed by its circular arms gracefully swirling around its oval nucleus. The vibrant blue hue of the arms is a result of their composition primarily consisting of hot young stars.
