Location: Celenia Observatory, Corinthia highlands, Greece.

Image Description and Details: A two seasons project of NGC5907 edge-on galaxy.
The ancient loop was still quite faint even with so many hours of data. There is only one stream as the Dragon fly telescope array confirmed, not two.
It’s interesting to see additional features at the outskirts of the galaxy reshaping its familiar knife edge appearance, it’s a kind of a gift bonus as faint material reveals its self the way gravity demands.
I hope you enjoy the view.
