6月14日,哈勃太空望远镜返回科学运行,使用其新的指向模式捕捉到这张螺旋星系NGC 1546的清晰图像。这个岛宇宙是多拉多星系群的一员,距离我们只有5000万光年。NGC 1546的星系盘向我们的视线倾斜,旧恒星发出的黄色光线和新形成的恒星发出的蓝色光线穿过星系的尘埃带。更遥远的背景星系散布在这张哈勃照片中。哈勃望远镜于1990年发射升空,30多年来一直在探索宇宙,最近刚刚庆祝了它的34周年纪念日。

Returning to science operations on June 14, the Hubble Space Telescope used its new pointing mode to capture this sharp image of spiral galaxy NGC 1546. A member of the Dorado galaxy group, the island universe lies a mere 50 million light-years away. The galactic disk of NGC 1546 is tilted to our line-of-sight, with the yellowish light of the old stars and bluish regions of newly formed stars shining through the galaxy's dust lanes. More distant background galaxies are scattered throughout this Hubble view. Launched in 1990, Hubble has been exploring the cosmos for more than three decades, recently celebrating its 34th anniversary.
