Galaxy Wars: M81 versus M82

NASA APOD
COSMIC MESSAGE

Spiral galaxy M81 and irregular galaxy M82 are locked in a gravitational battle. M81, on the left, has blue spiral arms, while M82, on the right, shows red gas and dust clouds. This interaction has been ongoing for a billion years. M82's gravity likely created density waves that ripple through M81, contributing to its rich spiral arm structure.
