NASA made this huge picture. It has almost no stars at all, just about every single object is a galaxy. The arcs are local asteroids in new positions over the weeks it took to get this long exposure composite photo. Several mergers, post-mergers, all types and configurations of galaxies near and far.

Tried shooting on film back in the day but could not afford the equipment it took to get good photos in the 1960's. Now I admire the work of others.
I wished I could take photos like yours, too cool.
