Summary[edit]

Description

Once upon a time there was a simple galaxy, and within it lived a simple people. They made music, and art, and beautiful houses, and there was a place for everyone, and bad things never happened to anyone. The end.

Data from the following proposal were used to create this image: The ACS Virgo Cluster Survey

Some processing notes: The chip gap was filled by making use of the galaxy's own symmetry by simply taking the necessary strip of data from the opposite side and rotating it 180°. A smaller background galaxy that crossed over the chip gap was cloned using the same method. This approximates reality, but by no means is perfect.
