NGC 7331, also known as Caldwell 30, is an unbarred spiral galaxy about 40 million light-years (12 Mpc) away in the constellation Pegasus. It was discovered by William Herschel in 1784. [ 4] NGC 7331 is the brightest galaxy in the field of a visual grouping known as the NGC 7331 Group of galaxies. In fact, the other members of the group, NGC ...
The Pegasus Dwarf Spheroidal is a galaxy with mainly metal-poor stellar populations. [4] Its metallicity is [Fe/H] ≃ −1.3. [5] It is located at the right ascension 23h51m46.30s and declination +24d34m57.0s in the equatorial coordinate system (epoch J2000.0), and in a distance of 820 ± 20 kpc from Earth and a distance of 294 ± 8 kpc from the Andromeda Galaxy.
NGC 7625. NGC 7625, or Arp 212, is a peculiar galaxy in the constellation of Pegasus. It was discovered on October 15, 1784, by William Herschel. [ 8] In his New General Catalogue (1888), J. L. E. Dreyer described it as pretty bright, considerably small, round, with a suddenly much brighter middle. [ 9]
NGC 7331 Group is a visual grouping of galaxies in the constellation Pegasus. Spiral galaxy NGC 7331 is a foreground galaxy in the same field as the collection, which is also called the Deer Lick Group. [ 1] It contains four other members, affectionately referred to as the "fleas": the lenticular or unbarred spirals NGC 7335 and NGC 7336, the ...
List of nearest galaxies. This is a list of known galaxies within 3.8 megaparsecs (12.4 million light-years) of the Solar System, in ascending order of heliocentric distance, or the distance to the Sun. This encompasses about 50 major Local Group galaxies, and some that are members of neighboring galaxy groups, the M81 Group and the Centaurus A ...
NGC 7469. NGC 7469 is an intermediate spiral galaxy in the constellation of Pegasus. NGC 7469 is located about 200 million light-years away from Earth, which means, given its apparent dimensions, that NGC 7469 is approximately 90,000 light-years across. It was discovered by William Herschel on November 12, 1784.
Characteristics. Type. E2 [1] Other designations. UGC 12523, MCG +01-59-052, PGC 71121 [1] NGC 7619 is an elliptical galaxy located in the constellation Pegasus. [2] NGC 7619 and NGC 7626 [3] are the dominant and brightest members of the Pegasus galaxy cluster. [4] Both of them were discovered by William Herschel on September 26, 1785.
Pegasus Galaxy, or Pegasus Dwarf Galaxy, or Pegasus Dwarf, can mean several things: Pegasus Dwarf Irregular Galaxy or Peg DIG, a member of the Local Group of galaxies. Pegasus Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxy or Pegasus II, a member of the Local Group of galaxies, a satellite of the Andromeda Galaxy. Pegasus Galaxy ( Stargate), a location in the science ...
