Galaxy NGC 5866. Computer illustration of a view across the surface of an asteroid towards the disk galaxy NGC 5866 (diagonal, centre), tilted nearly edge-on to the line-of-sight, and revealing a crisp dust lane dividing the galaxy in two halves. NGC 5866 lies around 44 million light-years from Earth, in the constellation Draco.
