Description

10hours of data from Telescope Live CHI-1-CMOS platform on NGC3521.  Data reveals the flocculent nature of this beautiful spiral galaxy - including a faint arc of stars well above the disc of the galaxy.  There is also a hint of shel structure,  and superwind-driven star formation via young stellar streams emanating from the disc.  All in all, quite a lot going on in here.
