Pinwheel galaxy
Pinwheel galaxy. Optical image of the Pinwheel galaxy (M33) in the constellation Triangulum. North is at top. This face-on spiral galaxy is just under 3 million light years from our Milky Way galaxy, and is a major member of the Local Group of galaxies of which the Milky Way is a member. M33 is about 60, 000 light years across. It contains many prominent starbirth regions (pink). These are huge emission nebulae which glow as the hydrogen gas they contain is ionised by radiation from hot young stars within them. M33 is unusual in that these regions are not localised in the spiral arms, as in most galaxies

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing beauty of the Pinwheel galaxy, also known as M33, located in the constellation Triangulum. With its face-on spiral structure and a distance of nearly 3 million light years from our Milky Way galaxy, this celestial wonder is an integral part of the Local Group of galaxies. The Pinwheel galaxy spans an impressive diameter of approximately 60,000 light years. What makes M33 truly remarkable are its prominent starbirth regions depicted in striking shades of pink. These colossal emission nebulae emanate a radiant glow as they contain hydrogen gas that becomes ionized by the intense radiation emitted by young hot stars within them. Unlike most other galaxies where these starbirth regions are localized within their spiral arms, M33 defies convention with their scattered distribution throughout. As we gaze upon this awe-inspiring image captured through optical technology, it serves as a reminder of the vastness and complexity present in our universe. This photograph not only offers a glimpse into galactic cosmology but also sparks curiosity about the mysteries that lie beyond what meets our eyes.
