IC342
Photo description / processing
"IC 342 (also Caldwell 5) is an intermediate spiral galaxy in the constellation Camelopardalis. It is located near the galactic equator, where absorption of radiation by dust makes observation of the galaxy difficult. For the same reasons, it is difficult to determine the exact distance to the galaxy: modern estimates occupy an interval from 7 million light years to 11 million light years" - Wikipedia
