moderation: The Violent, Ghostly Center of Centaurus A —The Milky Way’s Giant Elliptical Neighbor — Centaurus A is the nearest giant, elliptical galaxy to the Milky Way, at a distance of about 11 million light-years.  This beautiful and spectacular appearance is due to an opaque dust lane that covers the central part of the galaxy. This dust is thought to be the remains of a cosmic merger between a giant elliptical galaxy and a smaller spiral galaxy full of dust that was swallowed up 200 to 700 years ago. The central region of the image reveals the parallelogram-shaped ghostly remains of the smaller galaxy, the contents of which appear to be churning inside Centaurus A’s core, likely triggering new generations of stars.

The Violent, Ghostly Center of Centaurus A —The Milky Way’s Giant Elliptical Neighbor

—

Centaurus A is the nearest giant, elliptical galaxy to the Milky Way, at a distance of about 11 million light-years.  This beautiful and spectacular appearance is due to an opaque dust lane that covers the central part of the galaxy. This dust is thought to be the remains of a cosmic merger between a giant elliptical galaxy and a smaller spiral galaxy full of dust that was swallowed up 200 to 700 years ago.

The central region of the image reveals the parallelogram-shaped ghostly remains of the smaller galaxy, the contents of which appear to be churning inside Centaurus A’s core, likely triggering new generations of stars.
