Hubble showed a photo of three massive galaxies that merge into one

Hubble sent another beautiful photo from space. The telescope was able to capture the process of merging three galaxies into

constellation Boötes.

What is known

Astronomers designate the trio of galaxies as SDSSCGB 10189.Its rarity lies in the combination of three large galaxies where stars are forming, and the distance between them is approximately 50,000 light years. To make it clearer, the closest large galaxy to us is called Andromeda and is located at a distance of 2.5 million light years from our planet, i.e. 50 times further.

A photograph taken by a space telescopeis one of the results of a project in which scientists study the huge galaxies that exist in our universe. The Advanced Camera for Surveys and Wide Field Camera 3 tools were used to capture the image. Space objects such as those captured in the Hubble image are called the brightest cluster galaxies (BCGs).
