This image is of NGC 891, a spiral galaxy. The view of this galaxy is edge on, giving us a view of only the outermost spirals framed by the copious sources of light emanating from the billions of stars that lie inside it. It is also possible to see patches of pink and blue, which are star birthing places and clusters of young stars respectively. This galaxy can be found in the Andromeda constellation, and lies approximately 30 million light years away.
