NGC 1546 is somewhat older: even the light Hubble observed took 50 million years to reach us.
Needless to say (“so why are you saying it?”): a long time ago and a galaxy far, far away. (“Can almost hear all them noisy space ship pursuits …y’know, using shifts in the infrared set to John Williams…”)

Spun sugar-y, innit. Wow!
I think I have an esp soft spot for Hubble b/c we once had really bad astigmatism in common.
