Hubble captures a spiral galaxy 49 million light years from Earth

The galaxy is located in the constellation Virgo. It belongs to the Seyfert galaxies, which have a very bright and active nucleus.

The Hubble Space Telescope captured images of the spiral galaxy NGC 4951, located 49 million light-years from Earth. This was reported by the European Space Agency.

NGC 4951 is located in the constellation Virgo and belongs to the Seyfert galaxies, known for their bright and active cores.

The photo was taken thanks to research on the movement of matter and energy in nearby galaxies. Galaxies constantly go through a cycle of star formation, where gas in the galaxy forms collapsing molecular clouds, creating new stars. These stars then disperse clouds with strong radiation or stellar winds in a feedback process. The remaining gas forms new clouds elsewhere.

This matter and energy cycle determines how quickly a galaxy forms stars and how quickly it burns through its gas reserves—that is, how it evolves throughout its lifetime.

Understanding this evolution depends on nebulae, stars and star clusters in space: when they formed and how they behaved in the past.

The image of NGC 4951 shows the vibrancy of this galaxy, showing the motion of matter and energy, glowing pink star-forming regions, young blue stars and thick dark dust around a bright core.

Hubble was previously reported to have photographed the spiral galaxy IC 4633, located 100 million light-years away in the constellation Apus.
