While there’s a lot we don’t know about space, we’re pretty sure of some things: planets become spherical, black holes don’t even let light escape, galaxies are more or less similar. However, there are some exceptions to the latter of these. One of these exceptions NGC 1156 called galaxy.

Of the world 25 million light years away The structure of the galaxy in the constellation Aries resembles bright red leaves spread out in space, unlike the galaxies we are used to. The European Space Agency (ESA) has stated that “A marvel of galactic morphology” defines as.

Very different from other galaxies

“A thousand bright stars looks like a spiral galaxy but lacks the characteristic spiral structure.“ESA has made the statement, “It still radiates a familiar glow, like elliptical galaxies and older, red stars at their center.” used his statements.

The red torches in the images, intense star formation show the regions. The intense energy of the galaxy also comes from these star clusters. From these young stars, ionized hydrogen gas is released into space, giving the stars their red glow, reminiscent of clove leaves.

Spiral galaxies usually have older, less luminous stars in the center. A large disk of hot, young stars revolves around these stars. NGC 1156 Although the center has older stars, the young stars do not form a spiral disk. For this reason, researchers classify this galaxy as an irregular dwarf galaxy.

On the other hand, the galaxy also has a function that allows it to maintain this shape. NGC 1156 is also an isolated galaxy is called. In other words, there is no other galaxy in the distance that can affect its shape.
