Zoom in to the giant elliptical galaxy NGC 1132. This galaxy is thought to have formed through the collisions and aggregation of a group of smaller galaxies. The galaxy is around 240, 000 light years in diameter, but has an envelope of hot X-ray emitting gas extending ten times that size. The galaxy lies around 320 million light years from Earth in the constellation Eridanus. | |
