About
I'm an instructor teaching astronomy and physics at the 色色研究所 in the Department of Physics.
The composite image is of the galaxy NGC 3077 combining 250渭m (red), 8.0渭m (green), and 4.5渭m (blue) images from the Herschel Space Observatory and the Spitzer Space Telescope. The 250渭m and 8.0渭m images show cool dust and warm polycyclic hydrocarbon emission displaced from the center of the galaxy by internal star formation and its interaction with nearby galaxies M81 and M82.
