The image was taken by the Gemini South telescope in Chile. Although they look like they're just passing by each other, the gravitational tugging has already begun to reshape the two galaxies and set off a wave of star formation. In about 100 million years, the two will merge into one elliptical galaxy.</DIV></blockquote><div style="border-bottom: solid 1px #dcdcdc; white-space: nowrap; margin-bottom: 8px; background-color: #eeeeee ;background-image: url(http://clipmarks.com/images/source-bg.gif); background-repeat: repeat-x; height: 24px; line-height: 24px; vertical-align: middle; padding-bottom: 4px; color: #666666; font-size: 10px;" ><a href="http://clipmarks.com/clip-to-blog/" title="see clips that are hot right now"><img src="http://content9.clipmarks.com/images/clip-icon.gif" alt="" width="19" height="19" border="0" style="vertical-align: middle; margin: 0px 4px; display: inline; border: none; float:none;" /></a>clipped from <a title="http://www.nytimes.com/slideshow/2008/06/27/science/062708-Sciencepix_5.html" href="http://www.nytimes.com/slideshow/2008/06/27/science/062708-Sciencepix_5.html" style="font-size: 11px;">www.nytimes.com</a></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.nytimes.com/slideshow/2008/06/27/science/062708-Sciencepix_5.html"><div align="center"><img src="http://content6.clipmarks.com/blog_cache/www.nytimes.com/img/0D538ACE-648F-40F1-80F4-147836ED47B4" alt="" /></div></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.nytimes.com/slideshow/2008/06/27/science/062708-Sciencepix_5.html"><DIV class="caption"><STRONG>Now you see it, now you don't.</STRONG> These are the two images that convinced scientists that NASA's Phoenix Mars Lander had dug into ice in the northern arctic plains of Mars.
