DescriptionCentral Disc of NGC 383.png
I ended up looking at this galaxy because of a discussion on palindromic prime numbers, which 383 happens to be. Anyway, this is just the central disc of the galaxy. The whole galaxy is much larger, looking like a smooth, bright elliptical galaxy. What's much more interesting about this galaxy is something that I wasn't able to include because I couldn't find the data. Or, maybe it is more appropriate to say that the NRAO archive confused me. If I ever get the data I'll post a new version with the radio jets. They're really something.
