The 1950’s dealt with threats from the USSR and Communism which scared many people in the United States and soon became a full-fledged paranoia.

On the outside is a ring dominated by bright blue stars‚ while near the center lies a ball of much redder stars that are likely much older.

How Hoag’s Object formed remains unknown‚ although similar objects have now been identified and collectively labeled as a form of ring galaxy. Genesis hypotheses include

Although Harley Davidson dominates the market in North America‚ it has been the smallest in Europe and the 4th in Asia/Pacific region which is dominated by Japanese brands. One reason for Harley’s smaller market share in Europe and Asia region is that the company cannot produce enough motorcycles to meet demand and its prices tend to be higher than competitive models. Shortages of Harleys lead many consumers to purchase competitive bikes as there are 2-year waiting lists for some Harley models.
