Shrouded Starburst Wall Art including Frame Frame Colors:Walnut Image data: NASA/JPL-Caltech/SwRI/MSSSA brilliant burst of star formation is revealed in this image combining observations from NASA's Spitzer and Hubble Space Telescopes. The collision of two spiral galaxies has triggered this luminous starburst, the brightest ever seen away from the centers, or nuclei, of merging galaxies. The merging galaxies, known collectively as II Zw 096, can be clearly seen at shorter wavelengths of light from Hubble (blue hues). The real action in this galactic
