It seems that we will never understand the magnitude of the universe in its demonstrated infinity. Neither our generation nor those to come will know all the secrets hidden in the sky, but advances in science are gradually unraveling more details of space and discovering more bodies in it.

Recently, NASA, through its Hubble space telescope, has discovered what could be a new galaxy, as it is a body with multiple rings around it and looks very much like a bullseye, as explained in the research. They also acknowledged that it was a "fortuitous discovery" while investigating a study of terrestrial images.

This galaxy is colloquially known as "bullseye", a name used in darts to refer to the center of the target

Formed after the union of two different bodies 50 million years ago

The formation of this body is very striking, as it is a small blue galaxy that ed through the enormous target (LEDA 1313424) almost twice the size of the Milky Way 50 million years ago.

This formation is strange as many are formed by the collision of two galaxies, but in this case it is a union between two galaxies, with one ing through the center of the other.

The most curious thing about this galaxy is that when it formed, not only were the rings of LEDA 1313424 preserved, but it also triggered more rings when the gas was expelled outward during the galaxy's age.

The peculiarity lies in the fact that these eight rings have never been detected before in a galaxy and the ninth ring was confirmed by the observatory thanks to the Hubble telescope. There is a possibility that there could have been up to a tenth ring, but it would have vaporized until it was out of orbit. This ring would be three times farther away than the widest ring captured in the Hubble image.
