Ten years later, young blue stars were found along the central dust band with the Hubble Space Telescope. [27] The Chandra X-ray Observatory identified in 1999 more than 200 new point sources. [28] Another space telescope, the Spitzer Space Telescope, found a parallelogram-shaped structure of dust in near infrared images of Centaurus A in 2006 ...
The location of NGC 4650A (circled in blue) NGC 4650A is a lenticular galaxy [5] of the rare polar-ring [6] type, located in the southern constellation of Centaurus.It has an apparent visual magnitude of 13.3 and spans an angular size of 1.6′ × 0.8′. [5]
It is a member of the Centaurus Cluster of galaxies, belonging to the section designated "Cen30". The morphological classification is SA(s)c, [4] which indicates it is a pure spiral galaxy with relatively loosely wound arms. [5] During 1999, this galaxy was the subject of an extended study using the Hubble Space Telescope to locate Cepheid ...

Later observations (by Hubble himself, among others) showed Hubble's belief to be correct and the S0 class was included in the definitive exposition of the Hubble sequence by Allan Sandage. [12] Missing from the Hubble sequence are the early-type galaxies with intermediate-scale disks, in between the E0 and S0 types, Martha Liller denoted them ...
The spiral galaxy NGC 4622 lies approximately 111 million light-years away from Earth in the constellation Centaurus. NGC 4622 is an example of a galaxy with leading spiral arms . [ 2 ] Each spiral arm winds away from the center of the galaxy and ends at an outermost tip that "points" in a certain direction (away from the arm).
