NGC 6782 is a barred spiral galaxy located in the southern constellation of Pavo, at a distance of approximately 173 megalight-years from the Milky Way. [3] It was discovered on July 12, 1834 by English astronomer John Herschel.

2001年11月1日 · Ultraviolet light has a shorter wavelength than ordinary visible light, and is emitted from stars that are much hotter than the Sun. At ultraviolet wavelengths, which are rendered as blue in the Hubble image, NGC 6782 shows a spectacular, nearly circular bright ring surrounding its nucleus.

ngc 6782的影像漂亮地证实了这问题，答案是肯定的。 在可见光波段，NGC 6782 看起来是个正常的螺旋星系，有条明亮的棒状结构横过它的中心，但是在 紫外光 波段，核心区域却有壮观且复杂的结构。

2001年11月1日 · This spiral galaxy, when seen in visible light, exhibits tightly wound spiral arms that give it a pinwheel shape similar to that of many other spirals. However, when the galaxy is viewed in ultraviolet light with NASA's Hubble Space Telescope, its shape is startlingly different.

In visible light, NGC 6782 appears to be a normal spiral galaxy with a bright bar across its center. In ultraviolet light, however, the central region blossoms into a spectacular and complex structure highlighted by a circumnuclear ring, as shown in the above representative color Hubble Space Telescope image.

2023年8月15日 · NGC 6782 is a barred spiral galaxy in the constellation of Pavo. It is situated around 180 million light years from here. The galaxy has very tightly wound arms and a circular nucleus surrounded by a bright ring structure.

2001年11月1日 · At ultraviolet wavelengths, which are rendered as blue in the Hubble image, NGC 6782 shows a spectacular, nearly circular bright ring surrounding its nucleus. The ring marks the presence of many recently formed hot stars.
