It lies roughly 37 million light-years away in the constellation Columba.^[1] The image was formally released by the agency on 16 October 2026.^[2] Space Nugget. An edge-on galaxy is one we see from the side, so its disc of stars, gas and dust appears as a thin streak. Dark dust lanes along the middle mark where gas is dense enough to form new stars.
