Space jellyfish. You heard it here first, folks.
A strange, shimmering ‘jellyfish’ galaxy has piqued the interest of the US space agency.
The strange-looking galaxy – which is officially called ESO 137-001 – has tendrils of young stars dangling from its central disk like ‘cosmic tentacles’. Nasa says it plans to investigate why this occurs. ‘Most galaxies live in groups — for example, the Milky Way is a member of the Local Group, which also contains galaxies like Andromeda and the Triangulum spiral.’
Nasa’s Webb Space Telescope will study the tail of star formation to learn more about conditions there
