Gas Bridge Unveiled Between Dwarf Galaxies: 1.6M ly Tail
Discovery of a Rare Cosmic Gas Bridge In the Virgo Cluster, a team of international astronomers has identified an extraordinary structure: a straight corridor of neutral hydrogen that links two dwarf galaxies. The connection spans about 156,000 light-years, forming a bridge that extends into a sprawling tail of gas reaching 1.6 million light-years. Such a…
