Galaxy merger

Two overlapping galaxies in the process of merging, shown as a single disturbed system with bright interacting nuclei embedded in tangled luminous material. Their stellar disks are warped and partially interpenetrating, with stretched tidal tails and curved streamers of stars and gas pulled outward around the pair. The outer structure is irregular, with distorted bluish-white and golden star clouds and faint curved tidal extensions indicating an active collision and coalescence. Style: detailed space clipart with soft luminous gradients, clean edges, and no hard outlines.
