This NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope image features the remote galaxy HerS 020941.1+001557, which appears as a red arc that partially encircles a foreground elliptical galaxy.
Astronomers used the Hubble Space Telescope to image "peculiar" galaxy Arp 184 (NGC 1961) about 190 million light-years away. Remarkably, the spiral galaxy has only one visible arm.
However, not all spiral galaxies are created equal, as two recent images from the Hubble Space Telescope show. The image above shows galaxy NGC 3596, a neat and orderly spiral galaxy.
The Hubble Space Telescope marks its 35th anniversary with a stunning new image of the Sombrero Galaxy. This detailed view reveals the galaxy's structure, including its bright bulge and dusty disc.
