the Milky Way, rising in full splendor above a tranquil riverbank, where the frogs sing loud as they wants to Talk to the stars. And they, the stars, shimmer densely across the sky, revealing the galaxy’s core with extraordinary clarity and depth. Below, a peaceful mirror of water reflects the surrounding trees, the faint hues of the night sky, the stars.. creating a poetic dialogue between the heavens and the earth, just broken by the wind, that wanted to be part of this magic moment. The entire scene is bathed in serenity, as if time itself had paused to admire the cosmos, from the space to the waters.

Stack of 175 photos x 25s. Somewhere in the Pyrenees Orientals, France.

A photo of a waterfall in the distance falling in two stages between rocky slows, partly covered with moss. In the foreground the water flows quite calmly between little rocks and stones. Branches on the right side bring the colours of autumn into the scene - some leaves can be seen on the rocks too.

The magnificent spiral galaxy NGC 2276 looks a bit lopsided in this Hubble Space Telescope snapshot. A bright hub of older yellowish stars normally lies directly in the center of most spiral galaxies. But the bulge in NGC 2276 looks offset to the upper left. 

In reality, a neighboring galaxy to the right of NGC 2276 (NGC 2300, not seen here) is gravitationally tugging on its disk of blue stars, pulling the stars on one side of the galaxy outward to distort the galaxy's normal fried-egg appearance.

This sort of "tug of war" between galaxies that pass close enough to feel each other's gravitational pull is not uncommon in the universe. But, like snowflakes, no two close encounters look exactly alike.

In addition, newborn and short-lived massive stars form a bright, blue arm along the upper left edge of NGC 2276. They trace out a lane of intense star formation. This may have been triggered by a prior collision with a dwarf galaxy. It could also be due to NGC 2276 plowing into the superheated gas that lies among galaxies in galaxy clusters. This would compress the gas to precipitate into stars, and trigger a firestorm of starbirth.

The spiral galaxy lies 120 million light-years away, in the northern constellation Cepheus.

This image was taken as part of the HST observation program #15615 (PI: P. Sell), a collaboration between the University of Florida (USA), the University of Crete/FORTH (Greece), INAF-Brera (Italy), and the Center for Astrophysics | Harvard & Smithsonian (USA).
