Galaxy Formation in Progress
6 months ago
This movie models how a galaxy acquires most of its gas — the raw material for making stars. Red is hot gas, blue shows the cold streams of gas that flow like a river toward the galaxy’s center, and green shows gas that has been stripped out of satellite galaxies and enriched in metal content by supernova explosions.
