NGC 4565
NGC 4565 is an excellent example of an edge-on spiral galaxy. If our own galaxy was viewed from this perspective some 49 million light years distant, it would appear very much like this. The dust lane is the obscuring lane of gas and dust that blocks (reddens) the light from the interior. Also notice the dwarf galaxy on the bottom-left of the image. This galaxy is very much like two other notable examples: M104 and NGC 891.
This image was taken as part of Advanced Observing Program (AOP) program at Kitt Peak Visitor Center during 2014.
