IC 1101 is located at 354.0 megaparsecs (1.15 billion light-years) from Earth. It was discovered on 19 June 1790, by the German-British astronomer William Herschel . [ 6 ]
This is a partial list of IC objects, which are astronomical objects included in the Index Catalogue of Nebulae and Clusters of Stars. This two volume catalog was published in 1895 and 1908 by J. E. L. Dreyer .
A2029 is a Bautz–Morgan classification type I cluster due to its large central galaxy, IC 1101. Abell 2029 has a diameter of 5.8–8 million light-years. This type of galaxy is called a cD-type brightest cluster galaxy and may have grown to its large size by accreting nearby galaxies. Despite its relaxed state, it is the central member of a ...
The Condor Galaxy is a colossal spiral galaxy disturbed by the smaller IC 4970. ... IC 1101 [a] 553,200 449,700 cD; S0- 2MASS K-band total mag NED: Abell 2261 BCG [a]
The supermassive black hole at the core of Messier 87, here shown by an image by the Event Horizon Telescope, is among the black holes in this list.. This is an ordered list of the most massive black holes so far discovered (and probable candidates), measured in units of solar masses (M ☉), approximately 2 × 10 30 kilograms.
O.G. Richter in 1984 then observed the galaxy during a redshift survey of the ESO/SRC Survey Fields 444 and 445 of the Klemola 27 group (now known as the IC 4329 galaxy group). [8] The group consists of prominent galaxies such as the namesake IC 4329 – another massive supergiant elliptical that is also an extreme Seyfert galaxy , and NGC 5291 ...
Canadienne cattle – the only breed of dairy cattle developed in Canada; Cymric cat – The Cymric is a muscular, compact, medium-to-large cat that weighs between 3.2 to 5.9 kg (7 to 13 lb), and Canada claims to have developed the long-haired variant; Canadian Arcott – a breed of domestic sheep native to Canada
The cD-type is a classification in the Yerkes galaxy classification scheme, one of two Yerkes classifications still in common use, along with D-type. [8] The "c" in "cD" refers to the fact that the galaxies are very large, hence the adjective supergiant, while the "D" refers to the fact that the galaxies appear diffuse. [9]
