Astronomers first witnessed a cruel space clash in which one galaxy permeates another intensive radiation, which inhibits the ability of the “wounded” galaxies to form new stars.
This was reported by the press service of the European Southern Observatory (ESO).
In the remote depths of the universe, two galaxies gathered together in an exciting war. Again and again they rush to each other at a speed of 500 km/s on a course of a cruel collision, only to deliver a small blow, and then retreat and turn into the next round, they said in ESO.
According to scientists, such a movement of galaxies is similar to the “cosmic knightly duel.”
But these galactic knights are not entirely noble, and one of them has a very unfair advantage: he uses Quasar to test his enemy with a radiation spear, the article says.
Quasars are bright cores of some remote galaxies that feed on supergrass black holes that give a huge amount of radiation.
Both Quasars and the merger of galaxies were previously much more often, most often appearing in the first several billion years of the Universe, therefore, in order to observe them, astronomers look into the distant past with the help of powerful telescopes.
The light from this “cosmic battle” came to us for more than 11 billion years, so we see it just as when the Universe was only 18% of its current age.
