Summary[edit]

Description

This image of spiral galaxy NGC 3351 combines observations from several observatories to reveal details about its stars and gas. Radio observations from the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA), show dense molecular gas in magenta. The Very Large Telescopeâs Multi Unit Spectroscopic Explorer (MUSE) instrument, highlights where young massive stars illuminate their surroundings in red. The Hubble Space Telescopeâs images highlight dust lanes in white and newly formed stars in blue. High-resolution infrared images from the Webb Space Telescope will help researchers identify where stars are forming behind dust and study the earliest stages of star formation in this galaxy.
