NGC 6744 is a spiral galaxy located approximately 30 million light-years away in the constellation Pavo. It is one of the largest and most luminous galaxies known, with a diameter of about 280,000 light-years, making it roughly five times the size of our own Milky Way galaxy.NGC 6744 is classified as a barred spiral galaxy, meaning that it has a central bar-shaped structure of stars, gas, and dust that is surrounded by a spiral pattern of arms. The galaxy is thought to be similar in many ways to the Milky Way, but with a more extended halo of stars and a more active star formation rate.NGC 6744 has been the subject of several studies by astronomers, who have used it to study the properties of the intracluster medium, the distribution of dark matter, and the evolution of galaxies. The galaxy is also thought to be a good analogue for the Milky Way, and has been used to study the structure and evolution of our own galaxy.NGC 6744 is located in the southern sky and is visible from the Southern Hemisphere. It can be seen through a telescope or binoculars, although it may appear faint and diffuse due to its distance from Earth.

The “AstroBin Image of the Day and Top Picks”, or IOTD/TP, is a long-running system to promote beautiful, interesting, peculiar, or otherwise amazing astrophotographs, with a focus on technical excellence. Learn more.

Submitted The date and time when you submitted this image for IOTD/TP consideration.	...
Views by Submitters (available since September 19th, 2023) Every image is assigned to 50% of available Submitters. In the event that at least 80% of them don't view the image before its time in the IOTD/TP process expires, it's assigned to the other 50% of Submitters and the process begins anew.
Promotions by Submitters When 3 distinct Submitters promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for Top Pick status. This requirement, in addition to anonymization of images and distribution to only a subset of them, prevents biases and ensures that the best images are selected.
Promotions by Reviewers When 3 distinct Reviewers promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for IOTD status.
Early dismissal Staff members have a lot of images to inspect on a daily basis, and they can dismiss images if they believe they don't meet the requirements for IOTD/TP selection. If an image is dismissed 5 times, it's removed from the process. This streamlines the process and ensures that any bias present in promotions could be overruled by other staff members.
