Hubble Space Telescope image of NGC 922, a ring galaxy formed by a galactic collision 300 million years ago. The image reveals a complex ring structure and numerous X-ray emitting knots, likely massive black holes, a surprising discovery given the galaxy's composition. NGC 922 is located 150 million light-years away in the constellation Fornax.

Hubble Space Telescope image of ring galaxy AM 0644-741, a stunning result of a galactic collision. The bright blue ring, 150,000 light-years across, showcases intense star formation triggered by the gravitational interaction with a smaller galaxy (visible near the top right). Background galaxies and foreground Milky Way stars are also visible. The image reveals the vastness and dynamic nature of the universe.

Stunning Hubble Space Telescope image of LEDA 1313424, nicknamed "The Bullseye Galaxy," a collisional ring galaxy with nine concentric rings formed by a smaller galaxy colliding with its center. The image showcases the galaxy's intricate structure and the surrounding cosmos. Located 567 million light-years away in the constellation Pisces, the galaxy spans 530,000 light-years across in this image.

Hubble Space Telescope image of ring galaxy AM 0644-741, a stunning result of a galactic collision. A bright ring of newly formed stars encircles the galaxy's core, a ripple effect from the gravitational interaction with a smaller intruder galaxy (visible near the top). Background galaxies and foreground Milky Way stars are also visible. The ring spans 150,000 light-years and lies 300 million light-years away in the constellation Volans.
