NASA Hubble’s Close-Up of Spiral’s Disk, Bulge


​This image from the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope shows IC 2051, a galaxy in the southern constellation of Mensa (the Table Mountain) lying about 85 million light-years away. It is a spiral galaxy, as evidenced by its characteristic whirling, pinwheeling arms, and it has a bar of stars slicing through its center. via NASA http://www.nasa.gov/image-feature/goddard/2019/hubble-s-close-up-of-spiral-s-disk-bulge
