Astronomers have found the first evidence of the collision course in two dwarf galaxies that are 760 million and 3.2 billion light-years away from Earth.
Abell 133 is a magnificent duo of galaxies that have recently merged, and it's earned the nickname "Mirabilis." This name pays homage to anknown for its long tail - similar to the beautiful streamers stretching out from this celestial collision.
As for Abell 1758S, the galaxies aren't yet joined to the same extent. Therefore, they are given two nicknames: Vinteul and Elstir. It appears that these two galaxies are currently linked by a bridge of gas and stars and haven't yet merged fully.By comparing galaxies colliding with each other billions of years ago to ones in existence today, astrophysicist
is delving into questions about interstellar relations between galactic ancestors that could offer insights on black holes and star formation.formed and evolved. With this knowledge, researchers may be able to answer the remaining puzzles surrounding our home Galaxy too! also added that follow-up observations would enable them to study the critical processes of understanding black holes and galaxies as infants.
