[Abstract] [Background] [Observation] [Analysis] [Notes] |
This celestial oddity is believed to be the result of a compact galaxy colliding near the center of a spiral galaxy. As the "bullet" galaxy approached, the spiral galaxy was drawn toward the massive center by gravity. The "wheel" originated from the clumping of stars as the radius of the spiral galaxy shrunk. Then the ring-like clumping moved away from the center as the "bullet" exited and decreased the gravitational attraction. The dense ring of stars forms the wheel while spokes emanate from the galactic center.
