The universe is full of galaxies, and many really unconscious galaxies are interesting objects from an astronomer physics, but they greatly challenge backyard supervisors with amateur telescopes. Such an object is the UGC 10214, which is the so -called tadpole galaxy in Drako. This forbidden spiral contains a long tide tail of the material, which is streaming from one end, thus causing the surname. It is a heavily disrupted forbidden spiral, and tidal tails, which extends 280,000 light-year long, reflects the Pachi areas of star formation.
This galaxy shines brilliantly in 14.4 magnitude and extends to a only 3.6 ‘0.8’, so a dark sky and a 10- or 12-inch telescope is required to spot it normally. Of course, astramezers rent more easily with such challenging objects due to the ability to catch long exposure.
The tadpole galaxy is located some 400 million light-year away, and it is classified with a morphological type of SB (S) C Peck, referring to its obvious signs of the final bit, “strange,” interaction. Although its main designation comes from Deputy General General Catalog In the galaxies, it also carries a number from Halton ARP’s Catalogs of Penning Galaxies, ARP 188.
What is happening with this strange thing? Astronomers believe that a compact interesting Galaxy crossed the Tadpol aircraft about 100 million years ago, which attracts a long arm of bright material. The interloping galaxy now appears behind the discs of the main galaxy (on the left side of the main nucleus with HST shot).
Tadpol Galaxy has produced two supernovas: SN 2007CU (which was at the peak in magnitude 18.9) and SN 2008DQ (which increased to 18.3).
