Just been playing with recent data and the halo of stars around NGC 253 really is enormous.
Stretched and displayed in negative it makes it clear just how large it is - doubles or triples the size of the galaxy really.
I haven't seen another image anywhere that shows it this large..? Bit of Milky Way cirrus in the sky there too
