IC-10/LBN-591 Starburst Galaxy.

IC 10 — is an irregular dwarf galaxy located in the constellation Cassiopeia and is the closest galaxy to us with active star formation. It is part of the Local Group of galaxies. 
Main characteristics
Distance from Earth. About 2.2–2.3 million light-years. 
Diameter. Approximately 5,000 light-years. 
Discovery. The galaxy was discovered by American astronomer Lewis Swift in 1887. 
Star formation in IC 10
IC 10 is considered a starburst galaxy — meaning it is undergoing an intense burst of new star birth. 
Some features of this process:
High concentration of massive stars. IC 10 contains significantly more Wolf-Rayet stars per square kiloparsec (5.1 stars/kpc²) than the Large or Small Magellanic Clouds (2.0 and 0.9 stars/kpc², respectively). 
Star formation rate. Currently, it is 0.04–0.08 solar masses per year. At this rate, the galaxy's gas reserves will last only a few billion years.
Structure of the interstellar medium. The galaxy exhibits multiple ionized and neutral shells, arc-like and ring-like structures ranging from 50 parsecs to 800–1000 parsecs in size. At the center lies an ionized hydrogen region sustained by the ultraviolet radiation of hot stars.
Unusual rotation. The visible part of the galaxy rotates in one direction, while the outer hydrogen shell rotates in the opposite direction. 
Additional features
Interstellar extinction. IC 10 is located 3.3° below the galactic plane, causing its light to be significantly attenuated by interstellar dust (reddening is estimated at 3 magnitudes). 
Black hole. In 2007, a stellar-mass black hole (24–33 solar masses) was discovered in IC 10. It manifests as the X-ray source IC 10 X-1, which is periodically eclipsed by a companion star — a Wolf-Rayet star. 
Synchrotron shell. The galaxy contains a unique synchrotron supershell, whose formation is linked to a hypernova explosion.
Studying IC 10 helps astronomers better understand the mechanisms of star formation and galaxy evolution, as well as the nature of black holes in binary systems.
