Fantastic. I wish someone explained to us what we are looking at exactly. I’d love to see someone geek out and give us an appreciation of this massive galaxy.
So cool. I wonder what the incredibly bright blue spot is towards the bottom of the picture. Just a really bright star, or a star that has gone nova/supernova?

I understand the reasoning for spiral galaxies but can someone explain why the outer spirals have hot spots of star concentrations?
