Answer 1

Explanation:

ESO 137-001 is a barred spiral galaxy located in the constellation Triangulum Australe and in the cluster Abell 3627. As the galaxy moves to the center of the cluster at 7 million kilometers per hour, it is stripped by hot gas, thus creating a 260,000 light-year long tail. This is called ram pressure stripping.
