Clash of the Titans - ESA Webb NGC 3256 may seem peaceful, a swirl of tightly entwined spiral arms set in a hazy cloud of light, but this image shows the aftermath of an ancient cosmic clash
Peculiar galaxy NGC 3256 - ESA Hubble This image, taken with the Wide Field Camera 3 (WFC3) and the Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS), both installed on the NASA ESA Hubble Space Telescope, shows the peculiar galaxy NGC 3256
Unveiling the Turbulent Heart of NGC 3256: A Deep Dive with JWST NGC 3256, seen through the James Webb Space Telescope, reveals the aftermath of a collision between two spiral galaxies 500 million years ago This event triggered intense star formation, evident in infrared light
ESA Science Technology - NGC 3256 NGC 3256 is an impressive example of a peculiar galaxy that is actually the relict of a collision of two separate galaxies that took place in a distant past The telltale signs of the collision are two extended luminous tails swirling out from the galaxy
NGC 3256 - ALMA Science Portal at NRAO Because of its proximity and the fact that it is observed nearly face-on, NGC 3256 is an ideal target to study merger-induced starbursts in the local Universe In fact, NGC 3256 could be regarded as the southern sky equivalent of Arp 220, the archetype of infrared-luminous merging galaxies
