NGC 4800

This Astrobin Debut Object is a spiral galaxy located 100 million light years away in the constellation of Canes Venatici at a declination of +47 degrees. It is a magnitude 12 galaxy which spans 1.7 arc-minutes in our apparent view. This corresponds to a diameter of 50,000 light years.

From our view perspective, the disk is inclined about 30 degrees from face-on.

Although small and hard to see, an intense reddish star-forming nuclear ring surrounds the small yellow core.

Several blue star clouds are seen in the outer disk region. The arm structure appears more diffuse towards the left and right edges of the outer disk.

The “AstroBin Image of the Day and Top Picks”, or IOTD/TP, is a long-running system to promote beautiful, interesting, peculiar, or otherwise amazing astrophotographs, with a focus on technical excellence. Learn more.

Submitted The date and time when you submitted this image for IOTD/TP consideration.	...
Views by Submitters (available since September 19th, 2023) Every image is assigned to 50% of available Submitters. In the event that at least 80% of them don't view the image before its time in the IOTD/TP process expires, it's assigned to the other 50% of Submitters and the process begins anew.
Promotions by Submitters When 3 distinct Submitters promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for Top Pick status. This requirement, in addition to anonymization of images and distribution to only a subset of them, prevents biases and ensures that the best images are selected.
Promotions by Reviewers When 3 distinct Reviewers promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for IOTD status.
Early dismissal Staff members have a lot of images to inspect on a daily basis, and they can dismiss images if they believe they don't meet the requirements for IOTD/TP selection. If an image is dismissed 5 times, it's removed from the process. This streamlines the process and ensures that any bias present in promotions could be overruled by other staff members.
