M81 NGC 3031 is a large spiral galaxy with young stars in the spiral arms blue surrounding the nucleus yellow. M81 is affecting its smaller neighbour, M82 NGC 3034, which is turbulent and irregular due to extreme rates of star birth and death. Both galaxies are around 12 million light years from Earth, in the contellation of Ursa Major. This image, published in 2007, was obtained by the Galaxy Evolution Explorer GALEX space telescope.
