NGC 4452: An Extremely Thin Galaxy

NASA APOD
COSMIC MESSAGE

NGC 4452 is an extremely thin disk galaxy in the Virgo Cluster, seen almost perfectly edge-on. The Hubble Space Telescope image shows it as a line segment, a dramatic reminder of how flat disk galaxies can be. Its lack of a visible dust lane suggests it has little gas and dust.
