      IC 5332

      IC 5332, also known as PGC 71775, is an intermediate spiral galaxy about 30 million light-years away[2] in the constellation Sculptor. It was discovered by American astronomer Lewis Swift on 19 November 1897.[4][5] IC 5332 is too faint to be visible to the naked eye, with an apparent magnitude of 10.72. Viewed from earth, it is nearly face on. It has a very small central bulge and open spiral arms accounting for its SABc classification. The galaxy lies in the direction of the galactic south pole (Wiki).

      This was taken with Telescope Live's CDK24 and is 15h 10m of total exposure time.
