This image shows the galaxy Messier 94, which lies in the small northern constellation of the Hunting Dogs, about 16 million light-years away.
Within the bright ring or starburst ring around Messier 94, new stars are forming at a high rate and many young, bright stars are present within it.
Starburst Galaxy Messier 94 is 16 million light years away.
So explain to me how this happens? How can such things have the same shape across such a span of space?
