NGC 2008 is a distant spiral galaxy located in the constellation Pictor. Its speed relative to the cosmic microwave background is 10,367 ± 11 km/s, which corresponds to a Hubble distance of 153 ± 11 Mpc (~499 million ly). [1] NGC 2008 was discovered by British astronomer John Herschel in 1834. [2]
J2345-0449 or 2MASX J23453268-0449256, is a spiral galaxy located 947 million light-years in the constellation of Aquarius. [1] It contains an active galactic nucleus and is classified as a radio galaxy, containing relativistic jets that are projected out from its spiral host by ~1.6 Mpc, making these jets the largest and rarest known.
NGC 4565 is a giant spiral galaxy more luminous than the Andromeda Galaxy. [6] Much speculation exists in literature as to the nature of the central bulge. In the absence of clear-cut dynamical data on the motions of stars in the bulge, the photometric data alone cannot adjudge among various options put forth.
NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope recently captured a breathtaking image of the spiral galaxy NGC 2566. Astronomers use detailed Hubble images to study star clusters and active star-forming regions.
NGC 1493 is a barred spiral galaxy in the constellation of Horologium. Its velocity with respect to the cosmic microwave background is 1004 ± 4 km/s, which corresponds to a Hubble distance of 48.3 ± 3.4 Mly (14.81 ± 1.04 Mpc). [1] In addition, six non redshift measurements give a distance of 35.38 ± 1.71 Mly (10.848 ± 0.525 Mpc). [2]
NGC 5068 is a face-on field barred spiral galaxy in the Virgo constellation. NGC 5068 is located approximately 22 million light-years away and has a diameter that exceeds 45000 light-years. [2] [3] Although no supernovae have been observed in NGC 5068 yet, a luminous red nova, designated AT 2020hat, was discovered on 12 April 2020 (type LRN ...
NGC 3190 is a spiral galaxy with tightly wound arms and lying in the constellation Leo.It was discovered by William Herschel in 1784. NGC 3190 is member of Hickson 44 galaxy group, estimated at around 80 million light years away, [2] and consisting of four galaxies in a tight group - NGC 3193 is fairly featureless, NGC 3187 is a dim but striking spiral galaxy and NGC 3185 has a barred spiral ...
