The Slow Dance of Galaxies NGC 5394 and 5395
These two galaxies, NGC 5394 and NGC 5395, are engaged in a gravitational dance that takes hundreds of millions of years for a single turn. Their interaction triggers bursts of new star formation. This image, captured by the Gemini North 8-meter telescope, combines four different colors, with red indicating hydrogen gas in stellar nurseries.
