| Description | NGC 70 is the "spiral" that's being perturbed. It has a bright nucleus, but the structure is nearly invisible in my capture even after an hour. But look at the gorgeous spiral structure rendered by the Hale Telescope! It's really strutting its stuff on this capture: 200" aperture, f/3! They spent $100 million in current dollars and you can see in this image why it was worth every penny. |
