Interacting Galaxies - 2006-11-21

Each galaxy has a super massive black hole in the middle... let's just say it'll be some ruff times for the habitants when these two black holes collide. (Which will probably take an infinite amount of time from our perspective)

"Strong tidal forces from NGC 2207 have distorted the shape of IC 2163, flinging out stars and gas into long streamers stretching out a hundred thousand light-years toward the right-hand edge of the image." - Information about the picture.
