NGC 2336
The many delicate spiral arms of NGC 2336 give it the appearance of regal, understated beauty. The central region sports a bar in which stars orbit the center of the galaxy, not in circles as do the stars in the outer arms- but instead in "figure eights" and more complicated weave-like patterns along the axis of the bar. This galaxy is one of the largest in the direction of Polaris- and it is one of the most northern CCD images acquired from the Visitor Center Observatories. NGC 2336 is around 100 million light years away.
This image was taken as part of Advanced Observing Program (AOP) program at Kitt Peak Visitor Center during 2014.
