Irregular Galaxy of the Little Magellan Cloud (NGC 292) - The Small Magellanic Cloud -...

IMAGE number
PIX4613420
Image title
Irregular Galaxy of the Little Magellan Cloud (NGC 292) - The Small Magellanic Cloud - The galaxy of the Little Magellan Cloud is about 240,000 light years from Earth in the southern constellation of Toucan. It's one of the closest galaxies of the Lactee Way. Infrared image obtained by Spitzer space telescope. This infrared portrait of the Small Magellanic Cloud, taken by Nasa's Spitzer Space Telescope, reveals the stars and dust in this galaxy as never seen before. The Small Magellanic Cloud is a nearby satellite galaxy to our Milky Way galaxy, approximately 200,000 light - years away. The image shows the main body of the Small Magellanic Cloud, which is comprised of the “” bar”” on the left and a “” wing”” extending to the right. The bar contains both old stars (in blue) and young stars lighting up their natal dust (green/red). The wing mainly contains young stars. In addition, the image contains a galactic globular cluster in the lower left (blue cluster of stars) and emission from dust in our own galaxy (green in the upper right and lower right corners). This image was captured by Spitzer's infrared array camera and multiband imaging photometer (blue is 3.6 - micron light; green is 8.0 microns; and red is combination of 24 -, 70 - and 160 - micron light). The blue color mainly traces old stars. The green color traces emission from organic dust grains (mainly polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons). The red traces emission from larger, cooler dust grains
