350 Trillion suns. Galaxy W2246-0526 <br /> <br />Artist impression of W2246-0526, a single galaxy glowing in infrared light as intensely as 350 trillion suns. It is so violently turbulent that it may eventually jettison its entire supply of star-forming gas, according to new observations with ALMA. <br /> <br />The most luminous galaxy known in the Universe — the quasar W2246-0526, seen when the Universe was less than 10% of its current age — is so turbulent that it is in the process of ejecting its entire supply of star-forming gas, according to new observations with the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA). <br /> <br />Credit: <br />NRAO/AUI/NSF; Dana Berry / SkyWorks; ALMA (ESO/NAOJ/NRAO) <br /> <br />https://www.eso.org/public/news/eso1602 <br /> <br />Music with thanks to:- <br />“Balada do Tejo feat.
