NGC 1672: Barred Spiral Galaxy from Hubble
NGC 1672 is a barred spiral galaxy, meaning it has a prominent bar of stars across its center. The Hubble Space Telescope captured this detailed view. We can see dark dust lanes, young blue star clusters, and red glowing hydrogen gas. Our own Milky Way galaxy is also thought to have a central bar.
