Description

Between weather, work and family this took longer than I thought! Interesting looking galaxy located in Leo, it is estimated to be 38 million light years distant and classified as SBb Barred Spiral Galaxy. Nice even in a 6" OTA. I particularly like the ring of stars just outside the core of the galaxy.
