Image title

Barree spiral galaxy NGC 2442 in Flying Fish - Barred spiral galaxy NGC 2442 in Volans - NGC 2442 is a barree spiral galaxy located about 50 million years ago - light. Its asymmetrical shape suggests that a galaxy interacts with it. Image obtained by the 2.2 meter MPG/ESO telescope at the La Silla Observatory. NGC 2442 is a barred spiral galaxy about 50 million light years away in the constellation Volans. This picture of the Meathook Galaxy (NGC 2442) was taken by the Wide Field Imager on the MPG/ESO 2.2 - metre telescope at La Silla, Chile. This view includes the whole galaxy and the surrounding sky, and clearly shows the asymmetric spiral arms. The longer of the two arms has intense star formation, which is visible here as a pink glow: this is due to the radiation of young stars ionising the gas they form from. The asymmetric shape and star formation are both thought to be caused by tidal disruptions from a near - miss with another galaxy at some point in its history
