🪐 The galaxy known as the Cartwheel Galaxy, located about 500 million light-years away in the constellation Sculptor, displays a striking ring-and-spoke structure unlike ordinary spirals or ovals. Its unusual shape was created when a smaller galaxy crashed through its center, sending waves of star formation racing outward and leaving behind bright, circular rings and faint, radial arms—an extraordinary cosmic ripple frozen in space. ✨ #galaxies⚡#shapes⚡#collisions⚡#nasa⚡#galaxy⚡#stars⚡#astronomy⚡#universe⚡#cosmos⚡#space 👉subscribe Universe Mysteries 👉more Channels ​
