Galaxy NGC 1365 - HD Stockvideo

"Zoom into the barred spiral galaxy NGC 1365, from a wide shot of the night sky including the constellation Orion (upper right). At the end of the animation, the view changes to an infrared image. At visible wavelengths, dust blocks much of the light from objects behind it. The dust is far more transparent to infrared radiation, permitting fine detail study of the structure of the galaxy at those wavelengths. The IR view was taken by the HAWK-1 camera. NGC 1365 is a member of the Fornax Galaxy Cluster, and lies around 56 million light years from Earth in the constellation Fornax.<br>Restrictions:"
