Home Decor from Science Photo Library
Triangulum galaxy (M33)
Triangulum galaxy (M33), ultraviolet image. This spiral galaxy, also known as the Pinwheel galaxy, is a member of the Local Group of galaxies, which also includes Andromeda and our galaxy the Milky Way. It has a diameter of around 50-60, 000 light years, around half that of the Milky Way. Its spiral arms contain mainly hot young blue stars, while its central nucleus is home to older, yellower stars, and more obscuring dust. The galaxy lies around 2.4 million light years from Earth in the constellation Triangulum. Image taken by the Galaxy Evolution Explorer (GALEX) space telescope

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing beauty of the Triangulum galaxy (M33), also known as the Pinwheel galaxy. Located approximately 2.4 million light years away from Earth in the constellation Triangulum, this spiral galaxy is a member of our Local Group, which includes Andromeda and our very own Milky Way. The image, captured by the Galaxy Evolution Explorer (GALEX) space telescope, reveals intricate details of this celestial wonder. With a diameter around half that of the Milky Way at 50-60,000 light years, M33 boasts stunning spiral arms adorned with hot young blue stars. These vibrant arms contrast against its central nucleus where older yellower stars reside amidst obscuring dust. Intriguingly, this ultraviolet image provides valuable insights into astrophysics and galactic evolution. The GALEX telescope's ability to observe in ultraviolet wavelengths allows scientists to study phenomena such as star formation and stellar populations within galaxies more effectively. As we gaze upon this remarkable photograph, we are reminded of both our place in the vastness of space and the infinite wonders it holds. The Triangulum galaxy serves as an awe-inspiring reminder that there is still so much left for us to explore and understand about our universe's grand tapestry.
