Hubble Sees Stunning Face-On Spiral Galaxy: NGC 2835 | Astronomy - Sci-News.com

Astronomers using the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope have produced a spectacularly detailed image of NGC 2835, a face-on intermediate spiral galaxy with multiple spiral arms.

This Hubble image shows NGC 2835, an intermediate spiral galaxy approximately 28.5 million light-years away in the constellation of Hydra.

“NGC 2835 was imaged as part of PHANGS-HST (Physics at High Angular resolution in Nearby GalaxieS), a large galaxy survey with Hubble that aims to study the connections between cold gas and young stars in a variety of galaxies in the local Universe,” Hubble astronomers said.
