Description
Great Barred Spiral Galaxy. Composite image of the Great Barred Spiral Galaxy (NGC 1365). This barred spiral galaxy lies around 56 million light years from Earth, in the constellation Fornax. It spans 200,000 light years across. Its size, rivalled only by M101, another giant spiral in the local universe, makes NGC 1365 a true supergiant galaxy.
