Spiral Galaxy M66 in the Lion - Spiral galaxy M66 in Leo - M 66 (NGC 3627) is a spiral galaxy located at a distance of about 35 million years - light. M66, with its neighbors M65 and NGC 3628, forms a remarkable triplet of galaxies, called the Lion Triplet or the M66 Group. NGC 3627, also known as Messier 66, is a beautiful spiral with a well - developed central bulge. It also displays large - scale dust lanes. The galaxy forms, together with its neighbours M65 and NGC 3628, the so - called “Leo Triplet””; they are located at a distance of about 35 million light - years. M 66 is the largest of the three. Its spiral arms appear distorted and displaced above the main plane of the galaxy. The asymmetric appearance is most likely due to gravitational interaction with its neighbours

Spiral Galaxy M66 in the Lion - Spiral galaxy M66 in Leo - M 66 (NGC 3627) is a spiral galaxy located at a distance of about 35 million years - light. M66, with its neighbors M65 and NGC 3628, forms a remarkable triplet of galaxies, called the Lion Triplet or the M66 Group. Image obtained with Siding Spring's 3.9m telescope. M66 is a dusty spiral galaxy, and is a member of the same compact group of galaxies as M65 and NGC 3628. The striking symmetry of M65 is lacking, and the central bulge, though large, is less well defined. The spiral arms are very easy to see, but seem distorted and displaced above the plane of the galaxy, probably a result of interactions with its neighbours. Much more dust is visible here as well as a few pink nebulae, signs of star formation, near the end of one of the arms

Spiral Galaxy M66 in the Lion - Spiral galaxy M66 in Leo - M66 (NGC 3627) is a spiral galaxy located at a distance of about 35 million years - light. M66, with its neighbors M65 and NGC 3628, forms a remarkable triplet of galaxies, called the Lion Triplet or the M66 Group. Image obtained by the Hubble Space Telescope. The unusual spiral galaxy, Messier 66, is located at a distance of about 35 million light - years in the constellation of Leo. Together with Messier 65 and NGC 3628, Messier 66 is one third of the Leo Triplet, a trio of interacting spiral galaxies, part of the larger Messier 66 group. Messier 66 wins out in size over its fellow triplets - - it is about 100 000 light - years across. Messier 66 is the proud owner of exclusive asymmetric spiral arms which seem to climb above the galaxy's main disc and an apparently displaced nucleus. This asymmetry is unusual; most often, dense waves of gas, dust and newly born stars wind about the galaxy's centre in a symmetric way. Astrono

All three are spiral galaxies. Image obtained in 1998 with an amateur instrument, a 130 mm bezel. This trio of galaxies in Leo is located at a distance of about 35 million light years. M66 is at upper left, M65 is below it at lower right, and NGC 3628 is at right. All are normal spiral galaxies, but NGC 3628 is seen edge - on, with a prominent dust lane obscuring the central portion of the galaxy

M66, with its neighbors M65 and NGC 3628, forms a remarkable triplet of galaxies, called the Lion Triplet or the M66 Group. Image obtained at the VLT in December 2001. NGC 3627, also known as Messier 66, is a beautiful spiral with a well - developed central bulge. It also displays large - scale dust lanes. Many regions of warm hydrogen gas are seen throughout the disc of this galaxy. The latter regions are being ionised by radiation from clusters of newborn stars.

Spiral Galaxy NGC 3628 in the Lion - Spiral galaxy NGC 3628 in Leo - NGC 3628 is a spiral galaxy seen by the slice located at a distance of about 35 million years - light. With its neighbors M65 and M66, it forms a remarkable triplet of galaxies, called the Lion Triplet or the M66 Group. Composite image obtained with Subaru and Hubble telescopes (HST). This edge - on galaxy lies about 35 million light years away. It is the fainter member of the Leo triplet, a group of galaxies dominated by M65 and M66. Composite image from Hubble space telescope and Subaru data sources

Spiral Galaxy NGC 3628 in the Lion - Spiral galaxy NGC 3628 in Leo - NGC 3628 is a spiral galaxy seen by the slice located at a distance of about 35 million years - light. With its neighbors M65 and M66, it forms a remarkable triplet of galaxies, called the Lion Triplet or the M66 Group. Image obtained with Siding Spring's 3.9m telescope. This picture has been specially enhanced to reveal NGC 3628, which is seen as an edge - on spiral galaxy, crossed by a dust lane. Galaxies seen edge - on are rare, but this example has other peculiarities. The dust lane is distinctly askew and the ends of the spiral arms are obviously puffed out, with evidence of star formation. The bright bulge of the galaxy also has an unusual 'peanut' shape. This suggests that the galaxies of the Leo group are interacting, gradually pulling each other apart as they orbit each other. Image obtained with the 3.9m telescope of Siding Spring
