Summary

Description
English: One of the big mysteries in astronomy is how galaxies grow and evolve over time. Collisions between galaxies are thought to be key events that shape their development. A stunning collection of 59 new images of colliding galaxies has been released to mark the 18th anniversary of the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope. They give us a unique insight into how galaxies collide to form larger galaxies. Credit:ESA/Hubble (M. Kornmesser & L. L. Christensen)

Приголомшлива колекція з 59 нових зображень галактик, що стикаються, була опублікована до 18-ї річниці космічного телескопа НАСА/ЄКА Габбл. Вони дають нам унікальне розуміння того, як галактики стикаються, утворюючи більші галактики.

Français : Le croissance et l'évolution des galaxies est un des mystères de l'astronomie. On pense que les collisions de galaxies ont une importance particulière dans leur développement. Une collection inédite de 59 images de collisions de galaxies a été publiée pour célébrer le 18e anniversaire du téléscope spatial Hubble. Ces images nous montre comment ces collisions produisent de plus grosses galaxies.

Slovenščina: Ena od velikih skrivnosti astronomije je, kako galaksije rastejo in se razvijajo skozi čas. Ključni dogodki, ki vplivajo na njihov razvoj, so trki med galaksijami. Osupljiva zbirka 59 novih slik galaksij, ki se srečujejo, je bila objavljena pred 18. obletnico Nasinega vesoljskega teleskopa Hubble. Dajejo nam edinstven vpogled v to, kako se galaksije združujejo in oblikujejo večje galaksije.

En fantastisk samling på 59 bilder av kolliderande galaxer har blivit publicerade för att fira NASA/ESA Hubbleteleskopets artonde årsdag. De ger oss en insikt i hur större galaxer kan formas genom kollisioner.
