A head-on collision between two galaxies fueled a triangular-shaped group of new stars forming. In this new image from NASA Hubble, astronomers suggest that these two galaxies passed through each other, igniting the uniquely shaped star-formation firestorm in NGC 2445 (the galaxy on the right), where thousands of stars are bursting to life. The galaxy on the right hasn’t escaped the one on the left (NGC 2444).
