CosmoView Episode 29: The Cosmic Jewels of Sextans A
The dwarf galaxy Sextans A is a cosmic jewelry box filled with bright young stars. Located around 4.4 million light-years from Earth, it has been contorted by several supernova explosions that give it a peculiar square shape. The galaxy overflows with young, blue stars and red-hued star-forming regions. This glittering image was taken at the Nicholas U. Mayall 4-meter Telescope at Kitt Peak National Observatory in Arizona.
