“Edge-on Spiral Galaxy NGC 891” is copyrighted by Bob Franke. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.
See it on NASA's siteNGC 891 is an edge-on spiral galaxy, about 100,000 light-years across and 30 million light-years distant in Andromeda. It closely resembles our own Milky Way, with a flat, thin disk, a central bulge, and dark lanes of dust cutting through its middle. Filaments of dust extend hundreds of light-years out from the main disk.
