One of the galaxies mapped by WALLABY: the red shade shows the atomic hydrogen gas content of the galaxy, overlaid on an optical image showing the stars. Much of it is typically found beyond the stellar disk (thin white line), where star formation takes place. Legacy Surveys / D. Lang (Perimeter Institute) / T. Westmeier
