IC 1319 is a spiral galaxy in Capricornus

IC 1319 (ESO 596-037, ESO-LV 596-0370) is a spiral galaxy in the constellation Capricornus. It shines at magnitude 14.0 and spans 47″ × 24″. It is faint: a 10-inch or larger telescope, or a camera, and it is highest in the evening sky in September.

Galaxy: a system of billions of stars, gas and dust held together by gravity, far outside the Milky Way. Spiral galaxies have a disk with arms; elliptical galaxies are smooth, round or oval swarms of older stars.
