NGC 4565 (large) and NGC 4562 (small) in Coma Berenices
The NGC Ten Minute Challenge
NGC 4565 (large) and NGC 4562 (small) in Coma Berenices The edge-on spiral galaxy NGC 4565 is a celestial showpiece - far superior to some of the Messier entries. This view resembles what we would see of our own Milky Way if seen from outside near its galactic equatorial plane. NGC 4565 is about 31 million light years distant. http://www.martin-nicholson.info/ten...gc/ngc4565.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/
