2001年1月9日 · Scientists believe that the tussle between these compact galaxies somehow created the pipeline, but they're not certain why NGC 1409 was the one to begin gravitationally siphoning material from its partner.

2001年1月10日 · Two galaxies in the constellation Taurus have locked horns: NGC 1409 and NGC 1410, bound by gravity, are spinning around each other at 670,000 miles an hour. And as this image taken by the...

The arms of NGC 1410, an active, gas-rich spiral galaxy classified as a Seyfert, are awash in blue, the signature color of star-forming regions. The bar of material bisecting the center of NGC 1409 also is a typical byproduct of galaxy collisions. Astronomers expect more fireworks to come.
