NGC 5364 is a grand design spiral galaxy located 54.5 million light years away in the constellation Virgo.
This dataset was a challenge - every frame had satellite traces. And because there were too few frames, the rejection algorithm didn't work. I had to clean up the image manually, as best I could, but there are still traces, especially in the galactic plane.
