Description

Located 67 million light-years distant in the direction of Cancer, this flocculent spiral has quite an extended halo of material surrounding an obviously older, yellowish core.   There are quite a few  much more distant galaxies in the field.

This is a lesser photographed galaxy on AstroBin, but it probably deserves a bit more attention that it's currently getting.
