NGC 1365: A Nearby Barred Spiral Galaxy
NASA APOD
COSMIC MESSAGE
Many spiral galaxies, including our own Milky Way, have a bar across their center. This image from the Fornax Cluster shows NGC 1365, a barred spiral with a prominent bar. The bar's motion and persistence imply massive spiral arms. Bright young blue stars and dark dust lanes show a strong, rotating wave of star formation.
