M90 - Galaxy in Virgo
The Messier Ten Minute Challenge
M90 - Galaxy in Virgo The spiral galaxy M90 (NGC 4569) was one of the eight galaxies listed by Charles Messier on March 18 1781. The tightly wound spiral arms show no sign of star formation except close to the inner disk. M90 is one of the very few galaxies that is moving towards us. http://www.martin-nicholson.info/ten...llenge/m90.htm Martin Nicholson, Daventry, England. http://www.martin-nicholson.info/1/1a.htm Visit the Astronomical Hall of Shame at http://www.geocities.com/queen5658/
