Dwarf Galaxy DDO 68 | Hubble

Dwarf Galaxy DDO 68 | Hubble


This image from the NASA/European Space Agency (ESA) Hubble Space Telescope shows a cosmic oddity, dwarf galaxy DDO 68. This ragged collection of stars and gas clouds looks at first glance like a recently-formed galaxy in our own cosmic neighbourhood. However, is it really as young as it looks?
