Image title
Barree spiral galaxy NGC 4319 and Markarian quasar 205 - Galaxy NGC 4319 and quasar Markarian 205 - The barree spiral galaxy NGC 4319, in the center, is 80 million years - light in the constellation of the Dragon. The Markarian 205 quasar, on the top right, is 14 times further at about 1 billion light years. These two objects are therefore not interacting; on the other hand, the galaxy NGC 4319 is probably interacting with the galaxy NGC 4291, out of field, as the weak arm at the bottom left allows. Quasars are galaxies that create an extremely bright core. Image made by the Hubble Space Telescope in 2002. In this NASA Hubble Space Telescope image, an odd celestial duo, the spiral galaxy NGC 4319 (center) and a quasar called Markarian 205 (upper right), appear to be neighbors. In reality, the two objects don't even live in the same city. NGC 4319 is 80 million light - years from Earth. Markarian 205 (Mrk 205) is more than 14 times farther away, residing 1 billion light - years from Earth. The apparent close alignment of Mrk 205 and NGC 4319 is simply a matter of chance. Astronomers used two methods to determine the distances to these objects. First, they measured how their light has been stretched in space due to the university's expansion. Then they measured how much the ultraviolet light from Mrk 205 dimmed as it passed through the interstellar gas of NGC 4319.
The Hubble Wide Field and Planetary Camera 2 image shows the inner region of NGC 4319. In addition to the galaxy's inner spiral arms, an outer arm is faintly visible at lower left. The unusually dark and misshapen dust lanes in the galaxy's inner region are evidence of a disturbance, probably caused by an earlier interaction with another galaxy, NGC 4291, which is not in the photograph. At a distance of 1 billion light - years, Mrk 205 is a relatively nearby quasar. Many quasars reside much farther away. Quasars, once known only as mysterious point -
