A spiral galaxy occupies most of the image. It is a slightly tilted disc of stars, yellow-white in the centre and blue in the outskirts, showing light from different stars in the galaxy. Its spiral arms curl outwards from the centre, speckled with blue star clusters. Dark reddish threads of dust swirl around the galaxy’s centre. The backdrop is four medium-sized and many small, distant galaxies on a black background.
📷 This NASA/ESA #Hubble Space Telescope image features spiral galaxy NGC 3370, home to two kinds of objects prized by astronomers for their usefulness in determining distances to faraway galaxies: Cepheid variable stars and Type Ia supernovae 🧪🔭
