Spiral Galaxy Moving Fast
https://apod.nasa.gov/apod/image/1808/heic1404b1920.jpg
Here we see spiral galaxy ESO 137-001 hurtling through a galaxy cluster called Abell 3627, which is about 220 million light years away from us. As the spiral galaxy speeds along at nearly 7 million kilometers per hour, some of its gas and dust is being stripped away, as we can see here. |

The stars in the foreground are from our galaxy. |

And the ****ing cops ticket me for going only 15mph above the limit. Not fair. |
