Still, reddish star forming regions that dot this cosmic pinwheel's spiral arms have suggested another nickname, the Thousand-Ruby Galaxy.

A mere 40,000 light-years across, smaller than the Milky Way, M83 is a member of a group of galaxies that includes active galaxy #CentaurusA.

Astrophotographer Rolf Olsen used a surprisingly small telescope to capture this incredible image of the nearby galaxy Centaurus A. Over 43 nights, he collected a mind-blowing 120 hours of exposure data to reveal the galaxy's chaotic beauty.

Centaurus A has a turbulent past, evident in the dark dust lane, massive shells of material, and faint jets blasting from its central black hole. A stunning testament to the power of both dedication and cosmic collisions! ✨
