This image combines Hubble observations of Messier 106 with additional information captured by amateur astronomers Robert Gendler and Jay GaBany. Gendler combined Hubble data with his own observations to produce this stunning colour image.
Messier 106 is a relatively nearby spiral galaxy, a little over 20 million light-years away.
