Description:
The NSF NOIRLab-operated Gemini North telescope captured stunning imagery of galaxies UGC 12914 and UGC 12915, aka 'Taffy Galaxies.' Their 'twisted appearance is the result of a head-on collision' according NOIRLab. <br/><br/>Credit:<br/>Images and Videos: International Gemini Observatory/NOIRLab/DOE/NSF/AURA, T.A. Rector (University of Alaska Anchorage/NSF’s NOIRLab), J. Miller (Gemini Observatory/NSF’s NOIRLab), M. Rodriguez (Gemini Observatory/NSF’s NOIRLab), M. Zamani & D. de Martin (NSF’s NOIRLab), ESA/Hubble/L. Calcada, D. Munizaga, N. Bartmann<br/>Music: Stellardrone - In Time
