NGC 1337 is estimated to be around 55 million light years away. Note the dim pink glows of a handful of HII regions in the spiral arms of the galaxy. If viewed face-on, instead of the inclined view we are presented, NGC 1337 might look very much like NGC 1042. (This galaxy is at about the same distance, and not too far away in the sky.) This image was taken as part of Advanced Observing Program (AOP) program at Kitt Peak Visitor Center during 2014.
