Barred spiral galaxy NGC 1300

Barred spiral galaxy NGC 1300, computer artwork. This galaxy lies around 75 million light years from Earth in the constellation Eridanus. The central bar is some 150, 000 light years wide. The blue colour of the spiral arms is due to their high population of hot, young, blue stars, while the orange nucleus contains more older redder stars. Several pink starbirth regions, huge clouds of glowing gas, are seen in the spiral arms. For an image showing a supernova in this galaxy, see image R730/066

EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print showcases the captivating beauty of the Barred Spiral Galaxy NGC 1300. Created through computer artwork, this galaxy resides approximately 75 million light years away from Earth in the constellation Eridanus. The image reveals a central bar that spans an impressive width of 150,000 light years. The vibrant blue hue adorning the spiral arms is a result of their abundant population of hot, young, and luminous blue stars. In contrast, the orange nucleus contains older and redder stars that add depth to this galactic masterpiece. Adding to its allure are several pink starbirth regions scattered throughout the spiral arms – colossal clouds of glowing gas where new stars are born. This awe-inspiring photograph not only offers a glimpse into our vast universe but also serves as a testament to the wonders of cosmology and galactic exploration. It reminds us of our place within this grand cosmos and ignites curiosity about what lies beyond our own celestial neighborhood. Captured by Science Photo Library, this image invites viewers to marvel at the intricate details and ethereal colors present in NGC 1300 while contemplating humanity's quest for knowledge in space exploration.
