Unusual Starburst Galaxy NGC 1313
NGC 1313 is a peculiar starburst galaxy, glowing with the light of new, massive blue stars. Unlike many discombobulated galaxies, NGC 1313 appears to be alone, without a recent collision. Its spiral arms are lopsided, and its rotational axis is off-center, making it a subject of ongoing astronomical study.
