00:00NASA has released 16 new galaxy images built with X-rays from its Chandra Observatory.
00:05The pictures show how black holes, collisions, and exploding stars shape galaxies, including our own.
00:12Each image blends Chandra's X-ray data with views from Webb, Hubble, and other telescopes.
00:18X-rays reveal superhot gas that other light can miss.
00:21The Whale Galaxy and the Cigar Galaxy show winds of hot gas blasting outward.
00:26Those winds can carry material thousands of light years into space.
00:30In Centaurus A, a stream of high-energy particles shoots tens of thousands of light years out.
00:35The Sombrero Galaxy hides a supermassive black hole in its dense core.
00:40ARP-143 shows an expanding ring left by a direct galactic collision.
00:45Messier 90 is losing its star-making gas as it moves through the Virgo Cluster.
00:50The Milky Way is expected to merge with Andromeda billions of years from now.
00:54These 16 images show galaxies are always changing.
