CANADA: NASA has been operating the Hubble Space Telescope for a number of years now with repeated and significant success. While the images that have come from the telescope have been amongst the most impressive images ever captured in space, this latest discovery ranks up there amongst the best that has ever been captured.
A team of researchers from the University of Notre Dame was able to find a distant galaxy with a halo around it, which was a first in terms of what the team had been able to find to that point. The Andromeda Galaxy was the subject of this find, and the halo that was found happened to be a gaseous cloud that engulfed the entire galaxy.
However, the distance is what has scientists so overjoyed by this find. This is a distant galaxy, but it it’s actually the closest galaxy that has ever been discovered by researchers to this point that has a well-documented halo around it, and is still relatively close to Earth. In fact, this is the closest discovered galaxy with a halo that has ever been discovered, in addition to just being one of the most interesting finds in galactic history.
