This gorgeous island universe, cataloged as NGC 2683, lies a mere 16 million light-years distant in the northern constellation Lynx. A spiral galaxy comparable to our own Milky Way, NGC 2683 is seen nearly edge-on in this cosmic vista, with more distant galaxies scattered in the background.

Spiral galaxy M90 is near the center of the Virgo Cluster of Galaxies - the closest cluster of galaxies to the our own Milky Way Galaxy. Also dubbed NGC 4569, this galaxy has a very compact and bright nucleus.

What could cause the center of M94 to be so bright? Spiral galaxy M94 has a ring of newly formed stars surrounding its nucleus, giving it not only an unusual appearance but also a strong interior glow.

One of the bright spiral galaxies visible in the north sky is M63, the Sunflower Galaxy. M63, also catalogued as NGC 5055, can be found with a small telescope in the constellation of Canes Venaciti.
![NGC 253 крупным планом](https://images.astronet.ru/pubd/2011/05/19/0001251748/NGC253-HST-Gendler3M.preview.jpg)
19.05.2011
This dusty island universe is one of the brightest spiral galaxies in planet Earth's sky. Seen nearly edge-on, NGC 253 is only 13 million light-years away, the largest member of the Sculptor Group of galaxies, neighbor to our own local galaxy group.
![Джеты в необычной галактике Центавр А](https://images.astronet.ru/pubd/2011/05/31/0001251959/cenAjets_many_900.preview.jpg)

Jets of streaming plasma expelled by the central black hole of a massive spiral galaxy light up this composite image of Centaurus A. The jets emanating from Cen A are over a million light years long. Exactly how the central black hole expels infalling matter is still unknown.
![NGC 922: кольцевая столкновительная галактика](https://images.astronet.ru/pubd/2012/12/18/0001274986/ngc922_hst_960.preview.jpg)
17.12.2012
Why does this galaxy have so many big black holes? No one is sure. What is sure is that NGC 922 is a ring galaxy created by the collision of a large and small galaxy about 300 million years ago.
![Скрытая галактика IC 342](https://images.astronet.ru/pubd/2013/07/19/0001290727/IC342_LRGBleshin950.preview.jpg)
18.07.2013
Similar in size to large, bright spiral galaxies in our neighborhood, IC 342 is a mere 10 million light-years distant in the long-necked, northern constellation Camelopardalis. A sprawling island universe, IC 342 would otherwise...
![NGC 3370: более четкий вид](https://images.astronet.ru/pubd/2013/08/10/0001291771/ngc3370_hst_900.preview.jpg)
8.08.2013
Similar in size and grand design to our own Milky Way, spiral galaxy NGC 3370 lies about 100 million light-years away toward the constellation Leo. Recorded here in exquisite detail by the Hubble Space...
![M74: идеальная спираль](https://images.astronet.ru/pubd/2013/08/12/0001291832/m74_hubble_960.preview.jpg)
11.08.2013
If not perfect, then this spiral galaxy is at least one of the most photogenic. An island universe of about 100 billion stars, 32 million light-years away toward the constellation Pisces, M74 presents a gorgeous face-on view.
