A field full of distant galaxies on a dark background. Most of the galaxies are very small, but there are a few larger galaxies and some stars where detail is visible. In the very center is an elliptical galaxy with a brightly glowing core and a broad disk. A reddish, warped, ring of light, thicker at one side, surrounds its core. A small galaxy intersects the ring as a bright dot.
