Photo Credit: NASA Stephan's Quintet: This image showcases four galaxies within Stephan’s Quintet. However, the major shock wave due to the interaction was recorded by Chandra X-ray Observatory.
Photo Credit: NASA Arp 107: This image consists of a pair of interacting galaxies along with a supermassive black hole at the centre of the bigger-looking galaxy
Photo Credit: NASA Arp 142: These interacting galaxies in the image are NGC 2937 and NGC 2936 showcasing a clump of gas and dust due to the interaction.
Photo Credit: NASA Merging Galaxies: This image showcases a galaxy merger at a distance of 270 million light-years from Earth.
