Hubble View of Spiral Galaxy NGC 247's Central Region
This image captures the central region of spiral galaxy NGC 247 in the constellation Cetus. NGC 247, located about 11 million light-years away, is part of the Sculptor Group of galaxies. The image shows the galaxy's bright nucleus surrounded by stars, gas, and dust. Recognizable features include dark patches and filaments of dust, intersected by bright knots of gas called H II regions. This stark contrast makes the photo ideal for educational purposes, scientific presentations, and materials related to space and astronomy.
