APOD 4.1

http://apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap100403.html

This picture was interesting to me because it shows a small galaxy near the small magelinic cloud that exhibits many young, newly formed stars. The dust and gas outside of the cluster of stars in the image is rippled and may be creating many new young stars. The background of the picture was also very interesting to me because it shows many distant galaxies, including several spiral galaxies.
