NASA's Hubble Space Telescope has captured an intriguing 'jellyfish galaxy.' It has been so named because of the bright strings of gas that are similar to "floating jellyfish tentacles" and can be seen trailing down from the central bright core of the galaxy. Dubbed JO204, the cosmic object is located in the constellation Sextans, about 600 million light-years from the Earth.
