Spiral Galaxy NGC 4911 - Galaxy Spiral NGC 4911 - The NGC 4911 galaxy photographed here by the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) is located in the Coma galaxy cluster (Abell 1656) about 320 million light years ago. Image obtained from different cliches obtained from 2006 to 2009, 28 hours of installation in total. A long - exposure Hubble Space Telescope image shows a majestic face - on spiral galaxy located deep within the Coma Cluster of galaxies, which lies 320 million light - years away in the northern constellation Coma Berenices. The galaxy, known as NGC 4911, contains rich lanes of dust and gas near its center. These are silhouetted against glowing newborn star clusters and iridescent pink clouds of hydrogen, the existence of which indicates ongoing star formation. Hubble has also captured the outer spiral arms of NGC 4911, along with thousands of other galaxies of varying sizes. This natural - color Hubble image, which combines data obtained in 2006, 2007, and 2009 from the Wide Fie

Coma cluster of galaxies Abell 1656 - Coma cluster of galaxies - The Coma cluster of galaxies consists of more than a thousand galaxies located 330 million years - light in the constellation Coma Berenices. This cluster is dominated by two large elliptical galaxies NGC 4874 on the right and NGC 4889 on the left. The Coma cluster of galaxies (Abell 1656) is one of the densest galaxy cluster known. It contains a thousand of galaxies and is located 330 million light years away. Two big elliptical galaxies dominate it: NGC 4874 (right) and NGC 4889 (left)

Spiral Galaxy NGC 4921 - Unusual Spiral NGC 4921 in the Coma Galaxy Cluster - Galaxy NGC 4921 photographed by the Hubble Space Telescope (HST). Located in the cluster of Coma galaxies (Abell 1656) is about 320 million light years old, this spiral galaxy presents an unusual structure with poorly marked arms; some young blue stars are visible but the activity of star formation here is much less strong than in other spiral galaxies. In the background, many more distant galaxies appear. This very deep image taken with the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope shows the spiral galaxy NGC 4921 along with a spectacular backdrop of more distant galaxies. It was created from a total of 80 separate pictures through yellow and near - infrared filters. The Coma Galaxy Cluster, in the northern constellation of Coma Berenices, the hair of Queen Berenice, is one of the closest very rich collections of galaxies in the nearby Universe. The cluster, also known as Abell 1656, is about 320 million light - years

Constellation of the Berenice Hair - Constellation of Coma Berenices - The constellation of the Berenice Hair contains a cluster of stars, Melotte 111. Coma Berenice's (Berenices Hair) would be as insignificant as many of Lacaille's southern sky inventions if it were not for the subtle but distinctive Coma Star Cluster (Melotte 111), 270 light years away. The constellation's name alludes to the flowing hair of Queen Berenices of Egypt, allegedly cut off in gratitude for the safe return of her husband from some military escapade. This constellation was once considered to be part of Leo, where the hairy smudge of the open cluster was regarded as the tuft of the lion's tail. Melotte 111 is a large, open cluster of stars ranging between 5th magnitude (barely visible) to 10th magnitude, 100 times fainter.

NGC 4394 is the archetypal barred spiral galaxy, with bright spiral arms emerging from the ends of a bar that cuts through the galaxy's central bulge. These arms are peppered with young blue stars, dark filaments of cosmic dust, and bright, fuzzy regions of active star formation. At the centre of NGC 4394 lies a region of ionised gas known as a LINER. Liners are active regions that display a characteristic set of emission lines in their spectra- mostl

Otherwise known as NGC 4676, the pair will eventually merge into a single giant galaxy. Image obtained by the Hubble space telescope in April 2002

Lenticular galaxy NGC 4710 in Berenice's Hair - Lenticular galaxy NGC 4710 in Coma Berenices - The galaxy NGC 4710 is located about 60 million years ago - light from Earth, in the galaxy cluster of Our Lady. It's a lenticular galaxy seen from the slice. Image obtained by the Hubble Space Telescope. Edge - on galaxy located at about 60 million light years away. NGC 4710 is a member of the giant Virgo Cluster of galaxies and lies in the northern constellation of Coma Berenices (the Hair of Queen Berenice). It is not one of the brightest members of the cluster, but can easily be seen as a dim elongated smudge on a dark night with a medium - sized amateur telescope. In the 1780s, William Herschel discovered the galaxy and noted it simply as a “” faint nebula””. It is an example of a lenticular or S0 - type galaxy - a type that seems to have some characteristics of both spiral and elliptical galaxies. Image taken by the Hubble Space Telescope

This face - on spiral M100, is one of the finest spirals in the Virgo galaxy cluster. As might be expected in a galaxy - rich environment, the lack of perfect symmetry in its brightest spiral arms suggests that M100 has been disturbed by gravitational interaction with its neighbours.

Constellation of the Berenice Hair - Constellation of Coma Berenices - The constellation of the Berenice Hair contains a cluster of stars, Melotte 111. Coma Berenice's (Berenices Hair) would be as insignificant as many of Lacaille's southern sky inventions if it were not for the subtle but distinctive Coma Star Cluster (Melotte 111), 270 light years away. The constellation's name alludes to the flowing hair of Queen Berenices of Egypt, allegedly cut off in gratitude for the safe return of her husband from some military escapade. This constellation was once considered to be part of Leo, where the hairy smudge of the open cluster was regarded as the tuft of the lion's tail. Melotte 111 is a large, open cluster of stars ranging between 5th magnitude (barely visible) to 10th magnitude, 100 times fainter.

The somewhat distorted shape of the dwarf galaxy suggests it could be both influencing and being influenced by M100, and may be the cause of the asymmetry in the spiral arms.
