Images from the Hubble Space Telescope show the core of an elliptical galaxy known as NGC 4150, thought to be well past its period of star formation, surrounded by streamers of dust, gas and young, blue stars considerably less than 1 billion years old, SPACE.com reported Tuesday. Scientists say the finding suggests elliptical galaxies can still have some youthful vigor left, possibly through encounters with smaller galaxies, and that the star birth in NGC 4150 may have been kicked off by a collision and merger with a dwarf galaxy.

The researchers conducted a computer simulation of how Andromeda has evolved over time, and the results suggest the two galaxies collided around 9 billion years ago and became permanently fused in the present Andromeda galaxy about 5.5 billion years ago, the BBC reported. While astronomers can detect galaxies at the very edge of the universe, there is still much that is unknown about those in our immediate neighborhood, known as the Local Group of galaxies, team leader Francois Hammer of the Paris Observatory says.

Google Needs a Nexus Tablet Fri, 26/11/2010 - 07:07 by Tim Beyers Is it possible to sell hundreds of thousands of tablet computers -- devices that were considered frivolous not long ago -- and be considered a failure?
