NGC 6384: Spiral Beyond the Stars
Eighty million light-years away in Ophiuchus, NGC 6384 is a spiral galaxy much like our own. The Hubble Space Telescope captured this detailed view, showing its central region to be 70,000 light-years across. We look beyond the stars of the Milky Way to see such distant, grand structures.
