6 月 14 日,哈勃太空望遠鏡重新開始科學運作,它使用新的指向模式捕捉到了這幅螺旋星系NGC 1546 的清晰影像。NGC 1546 是多拉多星系群的一個成員,這個宇宙島距離我們只有 5000 萬光年。NGC 1546 的星系盤與我們的視線呈傾斜狀,老恆星的淡黃色光線和新形成恆星的淡藍色區域透過星系的塵埃通道閃閃發光。更遙遠的背景星系散佈在哈勃望遠鏡的整個檢視中。哈勃於 1990 年發射升空,三十多年來一直在探索宇宙,最近剛剛慶祝了它的 34 週年紀念日。
原文:Returning to science operations on June 14, the Hubble Space Telescope used its new pointing mode to capture this sharp image of spiral galaxy NGC 1546. A member of the Dorado galaxy group, the island universe lies a mere 50 million light-years away. The galactic disk of NGC 1546 is tilted to our line-of-sight, with the yellowish light of the old stars and bluish regions of newly formed stars shining through the galaxy's dust lanes. More distant background galaxies are scattered throughout this Hubble view. Launched in 1990, Hubble has been exploring the cosmos for more than three decades, recently celebrating its 34th anniversary.
