哈勃太空望远镜
📍 NGC 1385
This Hubble view shows a gorgeous galaxy about 30 million light-years away.
Hubble holds a range of filters – several of which were used to build this image.
These highly specialized filters are pieces of physical hardware that allow a range of wavelengths or very specific wavelengths of light to enter the telescope, helping astronomers learn what elements are present, the temperature, and more.

Image description: A spiral galaxy. It has several arms that appear mixed together, yet it has an overall oval shape. The center of the galaxy glows brightly. There are bright pink patches and filaments of dark red dust spread across the galaxy’s center.
