Multi-telescope image showcases the largest known spiral galaxy in the universe
Three telescopes, two of which belong to NASA, have brought their data together to create a spectacular image. The image, which was originally revealed back in January 2013, is a composite of a giant barred spiral galaxy known as NGC 6872. This beautiful and shining galaxy is believed to be the largest known spiral galaxy that humanity has ever uncovered.
The NGC 6872 is ranked among the largest known spiral galaxies for a reason, measuring more than 522,000 light-years from tip to tip. That’s a massive size. In comparison, our own Milky Way galaxy is estimated to be only 100,000 light-years across. And this great barred spiral galaxy has held that title for decades, despite all the discoveries astronomers have made, especially in recent years.
