A very nice example of an edge on galaxy in the constellation of Draco. Estimated distance from earth 40 million light years. Interestingly it has an anomalously low metallicity and few detectable giant stars, being apparently composed almost entirely of dwarf stars, it is a member of the NGC 5866 Group. A number of other fainter and more distant galaxies are also visible including UGC 9769 mag (15)lower right.
