NGC 5907 is a spiral galaxy located approximately 50 million light-years away in the constellation Draco. It is also known as the "Splinter Galaxy" due to its elongated shape, which resembles a thin sliver. NGC 5907 is notable for its bright core and faint outer regions, making it an interesting subject for astronomers. This galaxy is classified as an edge-on spiral, meaning we view it from the side, which accentuates its flat disk and dust lanes. NGC 5907 contains a significant number of stars and is surrounded by a halo of dark matter, contributing to its overall mass and gravitational influence.
