Description
English: This image shows a portion of the Hydra I galaxy cluster. Underneath the bright star taking the spotlight in the centre-left of the image, notice the spiral galaxy that looks almost smudged across the screen, spilling its contents into the cosmos around it. This is NGC 3312, a galaxy that is losing gas through a process known as ram pressure stripping. Check the links below for a closer look and an explanation of how this works.
