Spiral galaxies are among the most visually striking objects in astronomy. They feature graceful arms winding outward from a central bulge, embedded in a rotating disk.
These arms are regions where gas is compressed, triggering new star formation. Young, hot stars light up the arms, while older stars populate the disk and bulge.
Spiral galaxies are dynamic systems, balancing rotation, gravity, and ongoing stellar birth.
