Description

About the size of the Andromeda galaxy, NGC 1232 is 60 million light years distant in the constellation of Eridanus. What I love about this galaxy is how tenuous and delicate the arms are. NGC 1232A is the small satellite object in the field.

This data was collected at the TAAA CAC dark site in southern AZ.
