Description

Ngc4395, at first glance, thought to be the Large Magellanic galaxy, but in fact, it is not. This target is rarely photographed. It is located in the posterior constellation. I call it "Magellanic Galaxy in the northern sky" for the time being, because it does look a bit like it. NGC 4395 is a low surface brightness spiral galaxy. From its northwest to Southeast, there are several wider areas with high brightness, and the brightest area is in the farthest southeast. The most notable feature of NGC 4395 is that it has the smallest black hole ever found, but the black hole has only 300000 mass of the sun.
