Dvärggalaxen det Lilla Magellanska Molnet, NGC 292 är inte så liten på himlen. Väl synlig med blotta ögat på södra halvklotet, Dess utsträckning på himlen är flera gånger större än månen trots avståndet på 200 tusen ljusår från Jorden. Totalt 53 timmar exponering med smala filter från Heavens Mirror Observatory, norr om Canberra i Australien, gjorde att jag kunde vaska fram många detaljer. Både klotformade stjärnhopar och en mängd nebulosor i rött på bilden. Bildbehandlad i PixInsight och LR.
