A galaxy is robbed of its gas and stars in a new image from the European Southern Observatory (ESO). The spiral galaxy, called NGC 3312, lies within a large cluster known as Hydra I. Located over 160 million light-years from Earth, this cluster contains hundreds of galaxies, the largest of which is NGC 3312.
