M82 Galaxy


is the Cigar Galaxy
of the starburst type.
12 million Lightyears away
in the constellation Ursa Major
within it lies the brightest
pulsar star M82 X-2.
Most of the stars within
formed in a short Burst
500 Million years ago
with star formation ending
abruptly 100 million years ago
leaving it riddled with young stars.
The intense gravity within
not only has an affect on the
structure of the Galaxy,
it also causes frequent supernova.
