In this video, the Hubble Telescope captures two galaxies colliding. This is an incredible discovery that will change how we view the universe!

The Hubble Telescope is one of the most powerful telescopes in the world, and this video demonstrates just how effective it can be. By capturing this video, the Hubble Telescope has revealed two galaxies colliding, an event that until now was only theorized. This is an incredible discovery that will change the way we view the universe!

We all know about the galaxies which are present in the universe. But, Have you ever seen two galaxies colliding with each other? That’s sounds quite fascinating. Galaxy mergers are among the most fascinating and thought-provoking events that can take place in the universe. There's no denying the awe-inspiring nature of supernovas and black hole collisions. But, Galaxy mergers have all of those things and more. So, get ready to go on the unforgettable adventure of seeing the impact of two galaxies colliding with one another. Without any further delay Let’s get started! The Hubble Space Telescope has remarkably been one of the most powerful telescopes in service since it was placed into low-Earth orbit in 1990 after being launched into space at that time. Although it is not the first space telescope, but it's one of the largest and most flexible, known both as an essential research instrument and as a public relations boon for the field of astronomy. It was launched in 1990 and is still in operation today. The scientist Edwin Hubble inspired the creation of the Hubble telescope, which is now considered to be among NASA's Great Observatories. The Goddard Space Flight Center is in charge of the spacecraft's controls, but the Space Telescope Science Institute is responsible for picking Hubble's targets and processing the data that it collects. Well, that seems quite engrossing. Now, let’s go through some of Hubble's features that gets its edge over the other telescopes. The five major instruments of Hubble are able to see in the uv, visible, and near-infrared portions of the electromagnetic spectrum. Hubble has a mirror that is 2.4 metres in diameter, which is approximately 7 feet 10 inches. Because it orbits above the Earth's atmosphere, Hubble is able to obtain photos with a far higher resolution than those obtained by ground-based telescopes while also capturing a significantly lesser amount of background light. The first proposal for a space telescope was made in 1923, and in the 1970s, the U.S. Space agency NASA and the European Space Agency collaborated to fund and construct the Hubble space telescope. It was supposed to be launched in 1983, however the project was plagued by technical setbacks, issues with the budget, and the Challenger catastrophe in 1986. The Hubble Space Instrument was actually launched in 1990, however its main mirror had already been ground wrongly, which led to spherical aberration, which limited the capabilities of the telescope. Only the Hubble Space Telescope was intended to be serviced and repaired by humans while it was orbiting the Earth. There have been 5 Space Shuttle missions that have been dedicated to the repair, upgrade, and replacement of various components of the telescope, which include all five of the primary instruments. After the tragedy that occurred aboard the Columbia in 2003, NASA administrator Michael D. Griffin gave his approval for the fifth mission, which resulted to its successful conclusion in 2009. In April 2020, the telescope reached the milestone of 30 years of continuous operation, and its continued use is anticipated until 2030–2040. The Compton Gamma Ray Observatory, and Chandra X-ray Observatory, along with the Spitzer Space Telescope, which covers the infrared band, are the other three observatories that make up NASA's Great Observatories programme. Hubble is responsible for the program's visible light component. The James Webb Space Telescope, which had its first launch on December 25, 2021, is intended to succeed the Hubble telescope in the mid-IR to visible band spectral range. The pair is comprised of two spiral galaxies, one of which is perpendicular to the other and the other of which is at an angle; these galaxies are located over a billion light-years far from one another. The images of the galaxies, which have been given the designations SDSS J115331 and LEDA 2073461, were obtained with the help of Hubble's Advanced Camera for Surveys instrument.

I know the likelihood of any two stars colliding during a galactic collision (merger) is remote. The stars in each are trillions of miles separated. Gravitational influence will exist everywhere from the start of the event. A 'virtual' gravitational center evolves ... just like with a Globular Cluster. Because of 'motion', every star is in orbit with every other star AND with the 'forever changing' gravitational center of the cluster ... else there would be 'quite the light show' as millions of stars collide in a spectacular fireworks display.

3:29 Wow. What would be the view of the night sky, on one of the planets in those galaxy's. I bet it would be stunning!
