NGC 2683
This spiral galaxy is viewed nearly edge-on from our perspective. The reddened light from the center of the galaxy appears yellowish due to thousands of light years of intervening gas and dust in the outer arms of this galaxy. The core just just be glimpsed through the last wall of dust in the center. NGC 2683 is a nearby galaxy at a distance of 16 million light years away. Other notable edge-on galaxies include: M104, NGC 4565, and NGC 891.
