Hubble Observes Spiral Galaxy NGC 3285B, a Cosmic Whirlpool Swirling in the Constellation Hydra

The NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope has imaged NGC 3285B, a cosmic whirlpool in the constellation Hydra, 137 million light-years away. Looks peaceful doesn’t it? But it’s surrounded by countless other galaxies. NGC 3285B is in the Hydra I cluster where hundreds to thousands of galaxies are held together by gravity. Hydra arcs 100 degrees across [...]
