The Tadpole Galaxy, also known as UGC 10214[2] and Arp 188, [3] is a disrupted barred spiral galaxy located 420 million light-years from Earth in the northern constellation Draco. Its most dramatic feature is a trail of stars about 280,000 light-years long.
Tadpole Galaxy Facts (UGC 10214) - Universe Guide
The Tadpole Galaxy is a galaxy over 400 million light years away. It gets its name from the tail and is the result of two galaxies colliding, causing a tail as some stars are thrown out. It is believed that when the Milky Way collides with Andromeda, this is what it'll look like.
