About 25 million light-years from Earth and 40,000 light-years in diameter.Jun 20, 2019 Messier 106 and companions247 viewsThe large spiral galaxy at left is M106, lying at a distance of 22 to 25 million light-years from Earth in the constellation Canes Venatici. A myriad of other galaxies are in the frame, of which the two most prominent are NGC 4248 (closest to M106) and NGC 4217 (disk at right).Jun 19, 2019 Messier 104 - The Sombrero Galaxy295 views28 million light-years away in the constellation Virgo, the Sombrero is one of the most spectacular of all galaxies.Jun 19, 2019 Messier 101 - The Pinwheel Galaxy239 viewsFace-on spiral galaxy in the constellation Ursa Major. A colossus among galaxies, 170,000 light-years across (Milky Way is 105,700), with a trillion stars. Distance - approx. 25 million light-years from Earth.Jun 19, 2019 Messier 100 and companions210 viewsSpiral Galaxy in the constellation Coma Berenices. Surrounded by tiny satellite galaxies NGC 4323 and NGC 4328 (about 3 o'clock and 5:30). Larger spiral galaxy at top is NGC 4312.Jun 19, 2019 Messier 63 - The Sunflower Galaxy179 viewsAt a distance of 37 million light-years in the constellation Canes Venatici, M63 is known as the Sunflower Galaxy because of its bright yellow core (not so obvious in this image). At 98,000 light-years diameter, in is similar in size to the Milky Way.Jun 19, 2019 Messier 81 and 82201 viewsThese two galaxies are found in the constellation Ursa Major and are about 12 million light-years away. The larger one, M81, is also known as Bode's Nebula; the smaller is known as the Cigar Galaxy, although it's a funny kind of cigar because it looks like it's lit in the center rather than at one end. Maybe it's an exploding cigar. Yes - that's it! It's a starburst galaxy, with an abnormally high rate of star formation in the center!Jun 19, 2019 M51- The Whirlpool Galaxy206 viewsThere are actually two interacting galaxies here; the smaller companion is NGC 5195, and the two have collided in the past, causing all kinds of woe and grief. They are about 25 million light years away.Jun 17, 2019 M33 - The Triangulum Galaxy229 viewsAbout 3 million light-years away, this is the third-largest member of the Local Group, which includes M31 and the Milky Way.Jun 17, 2019 NGC 891- Silver Sliver Galaxy237 viewsAn edge-on spiral galaxy in Andromeda; about 30 million light-years distant; similar in size to the Milky Way.Jun 17, 2019 NGC 7331 - Spiral Galaxy in Pegasus207 viewsAbout 40 million light-years away; similar in size and structure to the Milky Way.
