Description

NGC 1365 is perhaps my favorite galaxy. It has such wonderful symmetry, and barred spirals fascinate me. I would love to understand the physics that formed such a structure. With NGC 1365 being way down at -36 Dec, it is too low for me to image from home, buried in the light dome of Atlanta. So I utilized a new remote imaging service to capture the data used here: skygems-observatories.com.
