by This jewel-bright image from the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope shows NGC 1385, a spiral galaxy 68 million light-years from Earth, which lies in the constellation Fornax.
NGC 1385's home—the Fornax constellation—is not named after an animal or an ancient god, as are many of the other constellations. Fornax is simply the Latin word for a furnace.
