NGC 3336 is a barred spiral galaxy [2] [3] located about 190 million light-years away [4] in the constellation Hydra. [2] It was discovered by astronomer John Herschel on March 24, 1835. [5] [3] NGC 3336 is a member of the Hydra Cluster. [6] One supernova has been observed in NGC 3336: SN 1984S (type unknown, mag. 16.8) was discovered by Paul ...
NGC 3200 is a large spiral galaxy located in the constellation Hydra. Its velocity relative to the cosmic microwave background is 3,877 ± 25 km/s, which corresponds to a Hubble distance of 57.2 ± 4.0 Mpc (~187 million ly). NGC 3200 was discovered by American astronomer Edward Singleton Holden in 1882. [1]
NGC 2937 is an elliptical galaxy located in the constellation Hydra. Its velocity relative to the cosmic microwave background is 105.1 ± 7.4 km/s, which corresponds to a Hubble distance of 105.1 ± 7.4 Mpc (∼343 million ly). [1] NGC 2937 was discovered by German astronomer Albert Marth in 1864.
The two ends of the nebula are marked by FLIERs, lobes of fast moving gas often tinted red in false-color pictures. [5] NGC 3242 can easily be observed with amateur telescopes and appears bluish-green to most observers. Larger telescopes can distinguish the outer halo as well. [6] At the center of NGC 3242 is an O-type star with a spectral type ...
NGC 2890 is a lenticular galaxy in the constellation of Hydra. Its velocity with respect to the cosmic microwave background is 5455 ± 37 km/s, which corresponds to a Hubble distance of 80.45 ± 5.67 Mpc (∼263 million light-years). [1] It was discovered by American astronomer Francis Leavenworth on 11 January 1886. [2] [3]
NGC 2848 is an intermediate spiral galaxy in the constellation of Hydra. Its velocity with respect to the cosmic microwave background is 2,361 ± 23 km/s, which corresponds to a Hubble distance of 34.82 ± 2.46 Mpc (∼114 million light-years). [1] It was discovered by German-British astronomer William Herschel on 31 December 1785.
NGC 3936 is a barred spiral galaxy in the constellation of Hydra. Its velocity with respect to the cosmic microwave background is 2,357 ± 24 km/s, which corresponds to a Hubble distance of 34.76 ± 2.46 Mpc (∼113 million light-years). [1] It was discovered by British astronomer John Herschel on 24 March 1835. [2]
