NGC 3717: A Nearly Sideways Spiral Galaxy
NASA APOD
COSMIC MESSAGE
This is NGC 3717, a spiral galaxy seen nearly edge-on. Its disk of stars and gas appears thin from our perspective, though it is slightly tilted, not perfectly sideways. Spiral galaxies form these flat disks because their initial gas clouds collided and cooled as they collapsed inward, a process similar to how planetary systems form.
