An illustration of where the galaxy should be (Isaac Newton Telescope)
Apparently, this is a picture of the place where you'd look if you wanted to "see" a galaxy made out of dark matter. By "see", I mean "point an incredibly expensive radio telescope at" and by "galaxy" I mean "mass of hydrogen a hundred million times the size of Sol, arranged in a spiral disc shape."

I love the universe. It's nothing profound, I just love the universe.
