NGC 6822 was discovered by E.E. Barnard in 1884.
This irregular dwarf galaxy is a member of the Local Group.
There is much dust in this region of the sky, as can be seen clearly in
the inverted image. The dust is a part of our Milky Way.
Because we are looking through this dust at Barnard's Galaxy,
the colour of NGC6822 is more reddish than it would
have been without dust: E(B-V)=0.24 mag.
