 "Both these edge on galaxies can be seen as small elongated smudges of light with a small telescope from the northern hemisphere. The images show both the central bulge of stars and the dust running through the plane of the disc"- Kurt Thrust acting CEO and current Director of the Jodrell Plank Observatory.

NGC4565 - 30 to 50 million light years distant in the constellation Coma Berenices taken with the COAST Robotic telescope  - BVR filters - on Mount Teide in November 2017. Credit telescope.org - Open University and Pip Stakkert.
