In a galaxy far, far away…

… stuff is forming. Gizmodo posts about an image captured at the Keck Observatory which shows a spiral galaxy in the process of formation.

Two neat things about this:

  1. This galaxy is 11-billion light years away.
  2. It was caught at the detail it was because of gravitational lensing.
