Polar Ring Galaxy NGC 2685
NASA APOD · Ken Crawford
COSMIC MESSAGE
NGC 2685 is a rare polar ring galaxy, with stars, gas, and dust orbiting in rings perpendicular to its flat galactic disk. This unusual configuration might be due to a disk galaxy capturing material from another galaxy, which then stretched into a rotating ring. Observations suggest that the rotating ring structure in NGC 2685 is remarkably old and stable.
