Zooming in on Dwarf Galaxy DDO 68 | Hubble

Zooming in on Dwarf Galaxy DDO 68 | Hubble

This video begins with a ground based view of the night sky, before zooming in on dwarf galaxy DDO 68 as the NASA/European Space Agency Hubble Space Telescope sees it.

This ragged collection of stars and gas clouds looks at first glance like a recently-formed galaxy in our own cosmic neighborhood. However, is it really as young as it looks?
