Spooky view of NGC 1566. Processed by Jackson Datkuliak. www.astrobin.com/o5rq2o/ 🔭 🧪

This infrared image captures the spiral galaxy NGC 1566, located in the constellation Dorado. The galaxy's swirling arms are illuminated by young, hot stars, while the central region glows with the light of older stars. The image reveals intricate details of the galaxy's structure, including dust lanes and star-forming regions. NGC 1566 is a type SBc spiral galaxy, meaning it has a prominent bar structure at its center. The galaxy is also known as the "Spanish Dancer Galaxy" due to its shape, which resembles a flamenco dancer.

Can someone explain to me why spiral galaxies are still spiral? Shouldn't the arms have merged by now? (I've asked this somewhere else but didn't get a reply)
