COSMIC MESSAGE
Centaurus A, a giant elliptical galaxy, shows a faint blue arc in this image. This arc is a stream of young stars, likely formed when a small dwarf galaxy was torn apart as it approached Centaurus A. The stream is about 2,000 light-years long and appears in the upper right, while the galaxy's dense core is at the bottom.
