The observations reveal cavernous bubbles of gas where forming stars have released energy. Credit: NASA, ESA, CSA, and J. Lee (NOIRLab). Image processing: A. Pagan (STScI)

Quote
Spiral galaxies are the most common type of galaxies found throughout the Universe. They possess the most beautiful features out of the 4 types of galaxies.

Usually, spiral galaxies contain a central bulge surrounded by a flat, rotating disk of stars. The bulge located in the center is made up of older, dimmer stars, and is thought to usually contain a supermassive black hole.

Around two-thirds of spiral galaxies also contain a bar structure through their center, the same as our Milky Way. The disk of stars orbiting the bulge tends to separate into arms that circle the galaxy.

The motion of the spiral arms still remains disputed.
