The Hubble Space Telescope captured this image of the galaxy Messier 90, which is approaching the Milky Way and may change over time as it loses gas.

The Hubble Space Telescope captured this image of the galaxy NGC 4569, also known as Messier 90, as it slowly approaches Earth. ESA reported it.

It is located in the constellation of Virgo, 55 million light years from our planet. The Hubble image provided a more detailed picture of the galaxy’s structure: its dust disk, gas halo and luminous core.

Red areas in the image indicate sites of active star formation in the inner regions of the disk, while blue highlights indicate the presence of hot young stars.

The European Space Agency explained that due to the gas pressure inside the Virgo galaxy cluster, Messier 90 lost a large amount of gas, preventing the formation of new stars. Subsequently, the galaxy will evolve into a lenticular galaxy and cease to be an active spiral galaxy.

As Messier 90 moves toward the Milky Way, scientists will be able to observe its evolution in more detail over the next billion years.

It was previously reported that the Hubble telescope took an image of the spiral galaxy NGC 4951, located 49 million light years from Earth.
