Spiral Galaxy Pair NGC 4302 and NGC 4298 Poster

Explore the captivating beauty of the "Spiral Galaxy Pair NGC 4302 and NGC 4298" with this stunning high-resolution poster

This image displays the galaxies NGC 4302 — seen edge-on — and NGC 4298, both located 55 million light-years away. They were observed by Hubble to celebrate its 27th year in orbit.

The galaxy NGC 4298 is seen almost face-on, allowing us to see its spiral arms and the blue patches of ongoing star formation and young stars. In the edge-on disc of NGC 4302 huge swathes of dust are responsible for the mottled brown patterns, but a burst of blue to the left side of the galaxy indicates a region of extremely vigorous star formation.

Huge mosaic

The image is a mosaic of four separate captures from Hubble, taken between 2 and 22 January 2017, that have been stitched together to give this amazing field of view. Two different types of light emitted by the galaxies — visible and near-infrared — have been combined to give a rich and colourful image. This light was captured by Hubble’s Wide Field Camera 3, one of the telescope’s most advanced imaging instruments.

Perfect for astronomy enthusiasts, stargazers, and art lovers, this poster brings the awe-inspiring beauty of the universe into your home or office.
