This is a sprial galaxy found as an M object in the direction of Ursa Major. As is apparent in almost every astronomy of the day picture this photograph is stunningly beautiful. To think that there are an almost infinite number of these galaxies in our universe really starts to hurt my mind. This is one of the last entries into Messier's catalog of objects in the sky. This galaxy is almost twice the size of our own Milky Way galaxy. It's pictures like this that do more to prove the existence of life on other planets than anything a scientist has found thus far. Just by sheer probability, I feel life does exist. Maybe that life exists in this pictured spiral galaxy.
