EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing beauty of the Pinwheel Galaxy (M101), a celestial wonder located a mere 22 million light years away from our own Milky Way. With its vast expanse spanning approximately 170,000 light years across, this spiral galaxy is twice the size of our familiar cosmic home. The image, a combination of data captured by both the Subaru Telescope and Hubble Space Telescope, unveils an intricate tapestry of stellar clouds and swirling spirals that dance across the frame. These bright regions are evidence of intense starbirth activity believed to have been triggered by a powerful collision with a smaller neighboring galaxy. Nestled within the constellation Ursa Major, also known as the Great Bear, M101 enchants viewers with its ethereal presence. The combined power of these telescopes allows us to witness in stunning detail this galactic masterpiece that has captivated astronomers for centuries. Renowned astrophotographer Robert Gendler skillfully captures this awe-inspiring scene through his lens and presents it as an exquisite print. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork, we are reminded once again of our place in the vastness of space and humbled by the grandeur that lies beyond our earthly realm.
