Description

NGC891/C23 ( the outer Limits Galaxy). This galaxy is an edge-on unbarred spiral galaxy. It can be found in the constellation Andromeda and is about 30 million light years away. Some call NGC 891 the “Outer Limits” galaxy because it was featured in the credits of the earlier incarnation of that famous TV series.

Simply amazing that the light in this image is 30 millions years old.

Still a work in progress though as I want to add some more subs.
