Hubble’s high-resolution imagery allowed researchers to hone in on more of the Bullseye galaxy’s rings — and helped confirm ...

Not far from the larger galaxy is a smaller one, seen in visible light images using the Hubble Space Telescope. Observations ...

NASA's Hubble Space Telescope had captured a ringed galaxy (LEDA 1313424) that not only heavily resembles a bullseye, but with nine (perhaps more) rings ...

A small blue dwarf galaxy passed through the massive Bullseye galaxy. This impact created nine rings of new stars.

The discovery was made by Imad Pasha, a doctoral student at Yale University, who stumbled upon the unique galaxy while examining a ground-based imaging survey. "This ...

NASA's Hubble Space Telescope has captured a cosmic bullseye! The gargantuan galaxy LEDA 1313424 is rippling with nine star-filled rings after an 'arrow' -- a far smaller blue dwarf galaxy -- shot ...

Observations taken using the Keck Cosmic Web Imager (KCWI), which is optimized for visible blue wavelengths, revealed that this smaller galaxy is not only close to Bullseye, at a distance of just ...

LEDA 1313424, aptly nicknamed the Bullseye, is two and a half times the size of our Milky Way and has nine rings — six more than any other known galaxy. High-resolution imagery from NASA’s ...

The research team said these rings likely formed when a smaller galaxy shot through the heart of the Bullseye galaxy roughly ...
