Distant Galaxies
This Hubble Space Telescope image captures faint galaxies from the early universe, up to eight billion light-years away. These bluish, irregularly shaped galaxies show signs of collisions and bursts of star formation. Studying them helps us understand how our own Milky Way Galaxy formed.
