“The M81 Galaxy Group through the Integrated Flux Nebula” is copyrighted by IAC. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.
See it on NASA's siteThis deep image of the M81 Group of galaxies features M81, a spiral galaxy interacting with M82. M82 has an unusual halo of red, filamentary gas. Around these, you can see many other galaxies from the M81 Group, as well as foreground stars from our own Milky Way.
