The Flying Bat Nebula, also known as NGC 4038 and NGC 4039, is a captivating astronomical object located in the constellation Corvus. This intriguing nebula is formed by the remnants of two colliding galaxies, often referred to as the Antennae Galaxies, due to their distinctive, extended tails that resemble antennae. The interaction between these galaxies triggers intense star formation, resulting in bright regions of newly formed stars visible within the nebula. The Flying Bat Nebula's unique shape and rich color palette, with hues of blue and pink, make it a favored subject in astrophotography.
