Supernova in Galaxy M82 in Ursa Major - SN 2014J is a supernova of type Ia discovered on January 21, 2014 in the M82 galaxy. The supernova appears to the right of the center of the image. M82 is an irregular galaxy distant about 12 million years - light from Earth. Image obtained by the Hubble Space Telescope on January 31, 2014. SN 2014J is a type Ia supernova discovered on January 21 2014 in M82. M82 is a prototypical irregular type galaxy located 12 million light years away in Ursa Major constellation. M82 is also the closest starburst galaxy to the Milky Way. This Hubble photograph was taken on January 31 2014, as the supernova approached its peak brightness

Irregular Galaxy of the Little Magellan Cloud (NGC 292) - The Small Magellanic Cloud - The galaxy of the Little Magellan Cloud is about 240,000 light years from Earth in the southern constellation of Toucan. It's one of the closest galaxies of the Lactee Way. Upstairs, the cluster of stars NGC 362. Image obtained by the 1.2m UK Schmidt telescope from Siding Spring, Australia. The Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) is the second nearest galaxy to the Milky Way, (the LMC being the nearest) and is at the distance of about 240,000 light years, quite close enough for it to be resolved into individual stars on this colour picture made from plates taken on the UK Schmidt Telescope. The shape of the SMC defies description and it is therefore classified as an 'irregular' galaxy. The small globular cluster at the top of the picture is NGC 362. It is about 30,000 light years distant

Constellations of Reticulum and Dorado - Constellations of Reticulum and Dorado - Constellations of Reticulum and Bream (top) near the galaxy of the Great Magellan Cloud. Reticulum is another small and insignificant southern constellation introduced by Lacaille in the 1750s. It commemorates a reticle, the cross hairs in an eyepiece used for measuring star positions, from the Latin for 'net' (hence reticulation, network). It is best found by looking for the Large Magellanic Cloud in the adjoining constellation of Dorado. Dorado, the Goldfish or Swordfish (Xiphias), is a constellation introduced by Johann Bayer, best known for his 1603 star atlas Uranometria, which was the first to cover the entire sky. It is notable mainly for containing most of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), the nearest galaxy to the Milky Way

It's one of the closest galaxies of the Lactee Way. Infrared image obtained by Spitzer space telescope. This infrared portrait of the Small Magellanic Cloud, taken by Nasa's Spitzer Space Telescope, reveals the stars and dust in this galaxy as never seen before. The Small Magellanic Cloud is a nearby satellite galaxy to our Milky Way galaxy, approximately 200,000 light - years away. The image shows the main body of the Small Magellanic Cloud, which is comprised of the “” bar”” on the left and a “” wing”” extending to the right. The bar contains both old stars (in blue) and young stars lighting up their natal dust (green/red). The wing mainly contains young stars. In addition, the image contains a galactic globular cluster in the lower left (blue cluster of stars) and emission from

Galaxy NGC 1427A in the Furnace - The irregular galaxy NGC 1427A in Fornax - The galaxy NGC 1427A is located in the Furnace cluster about 62 million years ago - light from Earth. It is an irregular galaxy populated with young clusters of blue stars and many star-forming regions. Further away, other galaxies are visible in the background. The irregular galaxy NGC 1427A is a small bluish galaxy plunging headlong into the Fornax galaxy group at 600 kilometers per second or nearly 400 miles per second. NGC 1427A, which is located some 62 million light - years away from Earth in the direction of the constellation Fornax, shows numerous hot, blue stars in this image obtained by the Hubble Space Telescope. These blue stars have been formed very recently, showing that star formation is occurring extensively throughout the galaxy. NGC 1427A will not survive long as an identifiable galaxy passing through the cluster. Within the next billion years, it will be completely disrupted, spilling its st

The Large Magellanic Cloud - The Large Magellanic Cloud - The Great Magellan Cloud galaxy is located about 160,000 light years away from Earth in the southern constellation of Dorado. Visible with the naked eye in the southern hemishere it is one of the closest galaxies to us. It contains large star-forming zones such as the Tarantula Nebula (30 Sea bream, visible to the left), the most active star-forming regions of the local group. Image obtained by the 1.2m UK Schmidt telescope from Siding Spring, Australia. The Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) is the nearest galaxy to the Milky Way but less than one tenth as massive; even so it contains the equivalent of over ten billion solar masses of material in the form of stars, gas and dust. The LMC is at a distance of 160,000 light years and is visible to the unaided eye from southern latitudes, rather like a detached piece of the Milky Way. The nearness of the LMC ensures that it is well resolved into stars in quite a modest telescope, and deep

Irregular Galaxy of the Little Magellan Cloud (NGC 292) - The Small Magellanic Cloud - The galaxy of the Little Magellan Cloud is about 240,000 light years from Earth in the southern constellation of Toucan. It's one of the closest galaxies of the Lactee Way. Two globular clusters are visible in this image, on the right the Toucan cluster, at the top of the galaxy the NGC 362 cluster. Image obtained by the 1.2m UK Schmidt telescope from Siding Spring, Australia. The Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) is the second nearest galaxy to the Milky Way, (the LMC being the nearest) and is at the distance of about 240,000 light years, quite close enough for it to be resolved into individual stars on this colour picture made from plates taken on the UK Schmidt Telescope. The shape of the SMC defies description and it is therefore classified as an 'irregular' galaxy. The large globular cluster at right is 47 Tucanae, while a smaller one at the top of the picture is NGC 362. It is about 30,000 light yea

M82 is an irregular galaxy distant about 12 million years - light from Earth. Its nucleus, which appears to have suffered from the passage of the neighbouring galaxy M81, is in a phase of violent star activity. Its central regions are rich in star formation. These hot stars blow a stellar wind that becomes a very violent galactic wind. Composite of multi - wavelength images of the active galaxy M82 from the three Great Observatories.

This wide angle image includes Horologium, Phoenix and Pictor, insignificant constellations roughly centred on an arc of delination 50* south, but at a scale too small to show the star identifications and stick figures. Horologium, the Pendulum Clock (originally l'Horloge and then Horologium Oscillitorium), was a constellation introduced by Abbe Nicolas Louis de Lacaille during his stay at the Cape of Good Hope between 1751 and 1752. It was named to honor Christian Huygens as the inventor of this type of clock, but the idea for such a method of regulating time came from Galileo. Lacaille's constellation drawing shows a remarkably detailed dial, weights and a pendulum that has little apparent connection with the scattering of faint stars in this part of the sky. There are no named stars and little else in

Nebula in the galaxy NGC 6822 - Bubble nebulae in NGC 6822 - Nebula in the irregular galaxy NGC 6822, adjacent to our galaxy. This gas bubble houses massive stars known as Wolf - Rayet. NGC 6822 is a nearby irregular galaxy reminiscent of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). Like the LMC it contains many, extremely hot stars of the Wolf - Rayet type, stars which often have intense stellar winds blasting from their surfaces. Small groups of such stars are found at the centres of the bubble nebulae seen here, which are the result of the stellar winds colliding with the more or less stationary interstellar medium in NGC 6822. At the interface of the collision, the interstellar medium glows, producing a thin, luminous bubble. Such bubbles are rare in the more turbulent Milky Way galaxy, but Henize 70 in the Large Magellanic Cloud is similar
