The Great Barred Spiral CHI-1 LRGB

The great Barred Spiral Galaxy (NGC 1365) lies at a distance of about 56,000,000 light-years from our Sun in the constellation Fornax. It's a double barred galaxy and is one of the largest known to astronomers, about 200,000 light-years across. Astronomers think that the Milky Way may look very similar to this galaxy, but at only half it's size!

I'm still trying to get this right....it's only about my 20th reprocess of this data!

Anyway, hope ya like this try!
