IC 3556 (= PGC 42005)
Discovered (1903) by Max Wolf
A 15th-magnitude spiral galaxy (type S0?) in Coma Berenices (RA 12 35 59, Dec +26 57 56)
Based on recessional velocity of 7395 km/sec, about 330 million light years away. Given that and apparent size of 0.8 by 0.45 arcmin, about 75 thousand light years in diameter. |
