The Antennae galaxies appear in a telescope at the 10th magnitude.

The Antennae galaxies take their name from the long antenna-like "arms," seen in wide-angle views of the system.

This image of the Antennae galaxies about 70m light years away is part the Guardian's Eyewitness collection.

One of the first things the Alma observatory spots in space is the collision of the Antennae galaxies.

The brothers attempted to reproduce specific galaxy mergers in their simulations, and it was their reproduction of the Antennae galaxies that gave them the greatest pleasure.

When two spiral galaxies collide, the hydrogen present on their disks is compressed producing strong star formation as can be seen on interacting systems like the Antennae Galaxies.
