NASA publishes a photo of the “hidden galaxy” located 11 million light-years from Earth

This stunning image was taken by the European Space Agency’s Euclid mission.

NASA has shared another marvel of space – the spiral galaxy, also known as the “hidden galaxy.” The galaxy captured by Hubble is located about 11 million light-years from Earth. This stunning image was taken by the European Space Agency’s Euclid mission.

“The spiral galaxy above, also known as the ‘hidden galaxy,’ is the first of five images released from the Euclid mission,” NASA wrote in the caption on Instagram. The space agency also stated that the galaxy is located about 11 million light-years from Earth, and that it “lies behind a dust clump in the Milky Way.”

A spiral galaxy typically contains a rotating disk with spiral “arms” curving outward from a dense central region. The Milky Way Galaxy is also a spiral galaxy.
