Arp 273: Battling Galaxies from Hubble
These spiral galaxies, known together as Arp 273, are in a titanic gravitational battle. The upper galaxy, UGC 1810, has a blue outer ring, which suggests recent star formation. This star formation is likely a result of the violent gravitational interactions between the galaxies.
