Spiral Galaxy NGC 1097 Wall Art including Frame Frame Colors:Walnut Bands of subtle colour -Captured with the MUSE instrument on ESOs Very Large Telescope (VLT), this image of the distant spiral galaxy NGC 1097 shows a textbook example of a star bursting nuclear ring. Located 45 million light years away from Earth, in the constellation of Fornax, this ring lies at the very centre of its galaxy. It spans only 5,000 light years across, being dwarfed by the full size of its host galaxy, which extends some tens of thousands of light years beyond
