Computer artwork of a spiral galaxy forming
Galaxy formation. Computer artwork of a spiral galaxy forming in the aftermath of the Big Bang, the titanic explosion which created the Universe about 15 billion years ago. Dense gas in the galaxys core has already condensed under gravit- ational attraction to form stars. Radiation pressure from these new stars is blowing some material away in streams. Around the core are spiral arms (blue) of diffuse gas which is condensing to form stars more slowly than in the core. Galaxy formation is thought to have commenced when the Universe was about 100, 000 years old. It is thought that they formed in high-density ripples in the early Universe

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a mesmerizing computer artwork of a spiral galaxy in the midst of its formation. It takes us back to the aftermath of the Big Bang, that monumental explosion which birthed our vast Universe approximately 15 billion years ago. At the heart of this galaxy, dense gas has already succumbed to gravitational forces and condensed into brilliant stars. The radiation emitted by these newborn celestial bodies exerts pressure on surrounding material, causing it to be blown away in graceful streams. Radiating from the core are magnificent spiral arms adorned in shades of blue, composed of diffuse gas gradually condensing into stars at a slower pace than within the galactic core. Scientists believe that galaxy formation commenced when our Universe was merely 100,000 years old and occurred within high-density ripples present during its early stages. This awe-inspiring image not only illustrates the beauty inherent in cosmic creation but also serves as a testament to humanity's relentless pursuit of understanding our origins. With elements encompassing science, space exploration, astronomy, cosmology, and more; this photograph encapsulates both wonder and knowledge about one of nature's most enigmatic phenomena - galaxies forming through eons-old processes shaped by gravity itself.
