"Flying saucer" in coma Berenices

Spiral galaxy NGC 4565, also called the "Galaxy-Needle" rotated edge-to-Earth and looks like a flying saucer. Telescopes, watching the sky in the Northern hemisphere, I see her bright slim profile in the dim constellation coma Berenices.

The resulting image shows some details of the galaxy. In the center of the disk glows bulging galactic nucleus of cubic shape. Around him circled by dark dust lanes.

Among other galaxies scattered in the background, NGC 4562 is seen next door in the upper right corner. NGC 4565 itself lies about 40 million light-years and reaches across 100,000 light-years. Astronomers enthusiasts can easily find her with the help of small telescopes and is considered an outstanding celestial masterpiece that Charles Messier for some reason missed and not included in your directory.
