NGC 3450 (= PGC 32270)
Discovered (Mar 22, 1835) by John Herschel
A 12th-magnitude barred spiral galaxy (type SB(rs)b) in Hydra (RA 10 48 03.5, Dec -20 50 56)
Based on a recessional velocity of 4025 km/sec, NGC 3450 is about 185 million light years away. Given that and its apparent size of 2.7 by 2.4 arcmins, it is about 150 thousand light years across. |
