Messier 66 Close Up
Messier 66, a spiral galaxy 35 million light-years away, is about 100,000 light-years across, similar to the Milky Way. This Hubble Space Telescope close-up spans 30,000 light-years around its core. The galaxy's disk is inclined to our view, showing dust lanes and young, blue star clusters surrounding its bright center, likely home to a supermassive black hole.
