Published on 6/24/2002 the Near Infrared Camera and Multi-Object Spectrometer (NICMOS) aboard NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope captured a series of breathtaking views of galaxies. NASA released some of the pictures in early June. One of the pictures showed a tumultuous collision between four galaxies, called IRAS 19297-0406, located 1 billion light-years from Earth. The galactic collision is creating a torrent of new stars. The large amount of dust generated by the collision is what produces the brilliant infrared glow.

The image above shows part of our Milky Way. This image was retrieved from analyzing IRAS data. The center of the image is the diffused nebula called "NGC 7822." Gas and dust cloud regions are also found in the image. A great number of new stars are forming in this region. These stars are extremely bright, exceeding the sun’s brightness by thousands of times.

Published on 1/8/2003 Photo: This schematic figure illustrates what the European team’s view of the rings geometry, in relation to the spiral structure of the Milky Way.

Two separate groups announced at the 201st meeting of the American Astronomical Society the discovery of portions of what appears to be a giant ring of previously unseen and surprisingly old stars surrounding our Milky Way Galaxy. If an entire ring exists, theorists might have to rethink details of how the galaxy formed.

Astronomers generally think that most of the galaxy’s tens of billions of stars reside within this relatively thin disk and a thicker bulge near the center. Stars are expected to be more numerous toward the center of our galaxy, thinning out towards the edges. The newly discovered ring contains about 100 to 500 million stars. So it was really a surprise to find millions of stars out by the fringe.

The stars in the ring orbit the galactic center at about half the speed of our Sun, said study member Brian Yanny of the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory. The ring appears to be about 10 times thicker than the disk, Yanny said.

"This ring is unusual in that it appears to consist only of old stars," Rodrigo Ibata of the Observatoire de Strasbourg in France and a member of the European-led team said. "Though there are several galaxies known with bright rings of young stars, none are known to have a ring similar to that of the Milky Way."

Although there are many interpretations about the ring’s forming, astronomers believe that this ring is still a puzzle.
