The Tadpole Galaxy
The Galaxy is a barred spiral galaxy located 420 million light years from Earth, near the constellation Draco. The tail of the galaxy is about 280,000 light-years long, containing stars and massive bright blue star clusters. It is said that a galaxy crossed in front of the Tadpole Galaxy, and was thrown around the Tadpole due to their gravitational attraction. Which in effect, left behind this trail of stars.
