Read Time:26 Second


Astronomers have revealed a nearby spiral galaxy in all its brilliant glory, shining in thousands of colors. The dazzling panoramic shot released Wednesday of the Sculptor galaxy is so detailed that it’s already serving as a star-packed map. Scientists used a telescope in Chile to observe the galaxy for more than 50 hours, stitching together multiple exposures to create the picture. The galaxy is 11 million light-years away in the Southern Hemisphere’s sky. A light-year is 5.8 trillion miles.
