Elliptical galaxy NGC 1316 in the Furnace - Giant elliptical galaxy NGC 1316 - By...

IMAGE number
PIX4609803
Image title
Elliptical galaxy NGC 1316 in the Furnace - Giant elliptical galaxy NGC 1316 - By studying the clusters of stars and clouds of dust visible in this photo taken by the Hubble space telescope in March 2003, it is believed that the giant elliptical galaxy NGC 1316 is the result of a collision of two spiral galaxies that occurred some billions of years ago. This galaxy resides about 75 million light years ago in the cluster of galaxies of the Furnace. Also called Fornax A, it is one of the strongest radio sources in the sky. This image made from data obtained with the NASA Hubble Space Telescope reveals the dust lanes and star clusters of this giant galaxy that give evidence that it was formed from a past merger of two gas - rich galaxies. NGC 1316 is on the outskirts of a nearby cluster of galaxies in the southern constellation of Fornax, at a distance of about 75 million light - years. It is one of the brightest ellipticals in the Fornax galaxy cluster. NGC 1316, also known as Fornax A, is one of the strongest and largest radio sources in the sky, with radio lobes extending over several degrees of sky (well off the Hubble image)
