It is made of two disk galaxies that will eventually merge together to form one massive system. NSF/AURA/NOIRLab/T.A. Rector (University of Alaska Anchorage/NSF’s NOIRLab) & M. Zamani (NSF’s NOIRLab) Researchers will attempt to make known superheavy elements using a titanium isotope beam later this year. If successful, they may launch an attempt to create a new atom, element 120.
