but also triggered new regions of star formation in LEDA 1313424. This happened as gas was ejected outward during the galaxy's passage, mixing with dust to form new stars and brighten the rings. The ...

The Hubble Space Telescope has discovered a rare "blue lurker" star that has been feeding on material from its two conjoined siblings. The fast-spinning star provides a detailed look at the ...
