Description

The barred spiral galaxy M83 (NGC5236), also known as the Southern Pinwheel.

I would like to dedicate this image to my good Swedish friend Andreas Lundgren, who observed and studied in deep M83 in several molecular transitions using the SEST radiotelescope at La Silla observatory (ESO). Great memories and moments shared together while observing together at the mountain top of La Silla during those years ... SEST was the best !!! Good old times !!!
