NGC 7098 Galaxy
PGC 67266 in Octans
is a double-barred spiral galaxy, located in the Southern Hemisphere.
At a distance of 95,000,000 light-years from Earth, it has an estimated diameter of 152,000 light-years.
NGC 7098 was discovered in 1835 by English astronomer, John Herschel.
Viewing in a dark room on a well-calibrated monitor will reveal faint wisps of IFN* extending from the galaxy to the left edge.
Many thanks to my collaborator and friend, Mike Selby, who acquired and calibrated this fine data.
