Image title
Markarian Galaxy 273 - Galaxy Markarian 273 - The Markarian galaxy 273 is about 500 million light years away from Earth in the constellation of the Great Bear. The presence of a 130,000-year-long maree tail suggests that Markarian 273 is the fusion of two galaxies. The collision caused a burst of star formations. This galaxy has a double core and is one of the brightest infrared galaxies. Image obtained by the Hubble Space Telescope on November 16, 2001. Markarian 273 shows an intricate central region and a striking tail that extends diagonally towards the bottom - right of the image. The tail is about 130 thousand light - years long and is strongly indicative of a merger between two galaxies. Markarian 273 has an intense region of starburst, where 60 solar masses of new stars are born each year. Near - infrared observations reveal a nucleus with two components. Markarian 273 is one of the most luminous galaxies when observed in the infrared, and is located 500 million light - years away from Earth in the constellation of Ursa Major.
