This one, called Arp-Madore 2105-332 by astronomers, is part of the constellation’s telescope. This star is not well visible (the naked eye can only see about 20 stars that make it up), but with appropriately advanced instruments, it becomes very interesting. The latest study, conducted by astronomers associated with the Hubble Space Telescope, aims to capture the interactions between the galaxies that make up Arp-Madore 2105-332.

The aforementioned constellation is located about 200 million light-years from our planet. Despite the great distance, it was possible to take an image from which several other galaxies, unrelated to the Arp-Madore 2105-332 system, could be seen. However, their random arrangement suggests that they are somehow related to the pair of stars at the center of interest.
The binocular constellation is very faint and is located about 200 million light-years from our planet
What exactly was observed during the microscope observations with the Hubble Telescope? Initially, the galaxy on the left is known as 2MASX J21080752-3314337, while the galaxy on the right is known as 2MASX J21080362-3313196. According to members of the research team, both belong to a type known as emission line galaxies. This means that spectrometer observations of the spectra of both galaxies show spikes in brightness known as emission lines.

They form when gases become very hot and gain enough energy for atoms and molecules to emit light. This, in turn, indicates that intense star birth is occurring in such regions. For this reason, research dedicated to it can provide important information about the evolution of galaxies and the formation of stars such as the Sun.
Echo Richards embodies a personality that is a delightful contradiction: a humble musicaholic who never brags about her expansive knowledge of both classic and contemporary tunes. Infuriatingly modest, one would never know from a mere conversation how deeply entrenched she is in the world of music. This passion seamlessly translates into her problem-solving skills, with Echo often drawing inspiration from melodies and rhythms. A voracious reader, she dives deep into literature, using stories to influence her own hardcore writing. Her spirited advocacy for alcohol isn’t about mere indulgence, but about celebrating life’s poignant moments.
