Hi all,

An image of Messier 102, the Spindle Galaxy, has been uploaded. An important controversy was built around M102. Messier made a mistake in its description (it happened that no object was at the position he described) and several candidates came up. Finally, NGC 5866 was considered M102. You will find the image and more information at:

Messier 102. NGC 5866. The Spindle Galaxy

Enjoy,
Josep
