 The NGC 1365 galaxy, also known as the Great Barred Spiral Galaxy, is seen in an image that combines observations performed through three different filters with the 1.5-metre Danish telescope at the European Southern Observatory (ESO) in Chile, in this handout photo distributed on Sept 22, 2010. The ESO's website describes the galaxy, at 60 million light-years from Earth, 200,000 light-years across and about twice the size of the Milky Way, as one of the largest known to astronomers.
