The galaxy that my team discovered is even rarer and much more complex than that.
We will not be visiting this galaxy anytime soon.
Similarly, a galaxy's structure in different light can help us trace back their origin and evolution.
I model the bright central body and remove my model from the image to check for any hidden features, because a bright structure in a galaxy may blind our views of faint features, just like using sunglasses when you are blinded by the intense light.
This galaxy doesn't just have an outer ring, it has an additional, diffused inner ring.
There is currently no known mechanism that can explain the existence of an inner ring in such a peculiar galaxy.
Further research into how this extremely rare galaxy was formed can provide us with new clues on how the universe works.
NASA's Kepler mission has discovered thousands of potential planets around other stars, indicating that Earth is but one of billions of planets in our galaxy.
Everything you see here is a galaxy, comprised of billions of stars each.
And the farthest galaxy is a trillion, trillion kilometers away.
What makes blazars so special is that they're some of the universe's most efficient particle accelerators, transporting incredible amounts of energy throughout a galaxy.
Of course, we know today that galaxies extend far beyond our own galaxy.
We see black holes at the heart of our galaxy, in the Milky Way, and elsewhere in the universe, where time itself seems to stand still.

We’ve observed several of these objects as close as 3000 light-years away, and there could be up to 100 million small black holes just in the Milky Way galaxy.
Still, the combination of how small they are and how vast the galaxy is means that stellar black holes don’t give us much to worry about.
If our galaxy collides with another, the Earth could be thrown towards the galactic center, close enough to the supermassive black hole to be eventually swallowed up.
In the past year, the Kepler space observatory has found hundreds of planets just around nearby stars, and if you extrapolate that data, it looks like there could be half a trillion planets just in our own galaxy.
Countless other planets in our galaxy should have formed earlier and given life a chance to get underway billions or certainly many millions of years earlier than happened on Earth.
In millions of years, an intelligent alien civilization could easily have spread out across the galaxy, perhaps creating giant energy-harvesting artifacts, or fleets of colonizing spaceships, or glorious works of art that fill the night sky.
Maybe a single, superintelligent civilization has indeed taken over the galaxy, and has imposed strict radio silence because it's paranoid of any potential competitors.
The sun seems impossibly big, but in the great scheme of things, it's a pinprick, one of about 400 billion stars in the Milky Way galaxy, which you can see on a clear night as a pale, white mist stretched across the sky.
Our galaxy is 10 billion years old, and early in its history stars formed at a different rate.
