Astronomers Spot Galaxy NGC 3640 With a Past of Consuming Smaller Galaxies
Recent observations of NGC 3640 reveal a history of merging with smaller galaxies. Located 88 million light-years away, the elliptical galaxy is suspected to be on a collision course with NGC 3641. The Very Large Telescope captured structural distortions, hinting at previous mergers. Researchers have identified ancient stars acting as fossil marker...
