The Needle Galaxy - NGC 4565 - Galassia Ago

Revision title: Rielaborata

La NGC 4565, è una magnifica Galassia a spirale situata a 40 milioni di anni luce in direzione della costellazione della Chioma di Berenice. Nota anche come "Galassia Ago" per via del suo profilo sottile dovuto al fatto che dalla Terra appare visibile perfettamente di taglio, come un lungo fuso con un nucleo centrale sporgente, interrotto da fasce di polveri oscure che percorrono tutto il sottile piano galattico. La sua estensione è pari a circa 100.000 anni luce, più o meno grande come la nostra Via Lattea.

NGC 4565 is a magnificent spiral galaxy located 40 million light years away in the direction of the constellation Coma Berenice. Also known as the "Needle Galaxy" due to its thin profile due to the fact that from the Earth it appears perfectly visible edge-on, like a long spindle with a protruding central nucleus, interrupted by bands of dark dust that run across the entire thin galactic plane. Its extension is approximately 100,000 light years, more or less as large as our Milky Way.

The “AstroBin Image of the Day and Top Picks”, or IOTD/TP, is a long-running system to promote beautiful, interesting, peculiar, or otherwise amazing astrophotographs, with a focus on technical excellence. Learn more.

Submitted The date and time when you submitted this image for IOTD/TP consideration.	...
Views by Submitters (available since September 19th, 2023) Every image is assigned to 50% of available Submitters. In the event that at least 80% of them don't view the image before its time in the IOTD/TP process expires, it's assigned to the other 50% of Submitters and the process begins anew.
Promotions by Submitters When 3 distinct Submitters promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for Top Pick status. This requirement, in addition to anonymization of images and distribution to only a subset of them, prevents biases and ensures that the best images are selected.
Promotions by Reviewers When 3 distinct Reviewers promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for IOTD status.
Early dismissal Staff members have a lot of images to inspect on a daily basis, and they can dismiss images if they believe they don't meet the requirements for IOTD/TP selection. If an image is dismissed 5 times, it's removed from the process. This streamlines the process and ensures that any bias present in promotions could be overruled by other staff members.
