"April 24 would mark the 27th anniversary of the launch of the Hubble Space Telescope. To commemorate the event, astronomers at NASA and the European Space Agency (ESA) have snapped a stunning new image of two galaxies that, at first glance, look very different but are very much alike.

The spiral galaxies, NGC 4302 and NGC 4298, are located 55 million light-years from Earth in the northern constellation of Coma Berenices. According to NASA, these galaxies, which are located in the Virgo cluster — a gravitationally bound cluster of nearly 2,000 galaxies — provide a glimpse of what the Milky Way would look like to observers looking at it from the outside...."
