This week’s image from the Hubble Space Telescope shows two galaxies which are in the process of merging together, in the system VV-689. This system is known as the Angel Wing due to the wing-like shape created as the two galaxies collide.
The project has been running since 2007, and during that time 15 different versions of the project have received millions of classifications from the public to help identify bright galaxies, interacting or merging galaxies, other phenomena such as supernovas, and more. A Galaxy Zoo Hubble project run between 2010 and 2012 focused on data from Hubble specifically, comparing older galaxies to their younger counterparts.
