Description

NGC4565 also called Needle Galaxy in Coma Berenices constellation is an edge-on spiral galaxy with distance about 30 to 50 million light-years from us. (Wiky)

Is one of my favorite galaxy in this season to be observed with > 12" and good dark skies

The field is rich of other small Galaxys especially the beautiful NGC4562 and the small IC3546.
