English: Warm gas clouds in NGC 1087 mapped with MUSE on ESO’s VLT
This image of the nearby galaxy NGC 1087 was taken with the Multi-Unit Spectroscopic Explorer (MUSE) on ESO’s Very Large Telescope (VLT) and it shows the distribution of warm gas clouds of ionised hydrogen, oxygen and sulphur gas, marking the presence of newly born stars. NGC 1087 is a spiral galaxy located approximately 80 million light-years from Earth in the constellation of Cetus. The images were taken as part of the Physics at High Angular resolution in Nearby GalaxieS (PHANGS) project, which is making high-resolution observations of nearby galaxies with telescopes operating across the electromagnetic spectrum.
