Twelve million light-years away, two of the most spectacular galaxies in the night sky hang together in the cosmic dark - M81's perfect golden spiral glowing with the light of billions of suns, while its wild companion M82 blazes with furious star formation, its core erupting in a riot of color.

This is deep space at its most dramatic, captured in stunning detail and ready to transform any wall into a window to the universe.
