Description

M95 is a barred spiral galaxy located about 33 million light years away and about 80,000 light years in diameter. It can be found in the constellation of Leo and is part of the M96 group of galaxies.  Its spiral arms wrap tightly enough around the bar shaped core to form a ring from which the arms spiral off.
