NGC 1569: Starburst in a Dwarf Irregular Galaxy
NASA APOD
COSMIC MESSAGE
Even small, irregular galaxies form stars, like NGC 1569. This dwarf galaxy is undergoing a burst of star formation, a process thought to have started over 25 million years ago. Supernova explosions within the galaxy feed this turbulent environment. They spew out material and trigger even more star formation.
