Composite image of NGC 4254, an M type galaxy with a spiral showing at least 8 arms in white, red, an orange. PHANGS-ALMA Survey: NGC4254
Seen here as an ALMA (orange) composite with Hubble Space Telescope (red) data, NGC1566 was among the nearly 100 galaxies catalogued by the PHANGS survey of the nearby Universe. NGC1566 exhibits grand-design spiral plus stellar bar morphology. PHANGS-ALMA Survey: NGC1566
While conducting a census of nearly 100 galaxies in the nearby Universe, the PHANGS survey observed NGC0628, a galaxy with pure grand-design spiral morphology. NGC0628 is shown here as an ALMA (orange) composite with Hubble Space Telescope (red) data. PHANGS-ALMA Survey: NGC0628
During a survey of nearly 100 galaxies in the nearby Universe, the PHANGS team observed NGC1385, a galaxy featuring pure flocculent disk morphology. The survey concluded that contrary to accepted scientific theory, not all stellar nurseries look or act the same. NG1385 is shown here as an ALMA (orange) composite with Hubble Space Telescope (red) data. PHANGS-ALMA Survey: NGC1385
Twenty galaxies in the nearby universe shown as ALMA and Hubble Space Telescope composites. They are shown in orange and red to highlight their different structures, including spirals, rings, S shapes, and more. PHANGS-ALMA Survey
NGC 4535 is a grand design spiral galaxy with stellar bar morphology, s-shaped in red, orange, white and some purple elements shown in this composite PHANGS-ALMA Survey: NGC4535
