The S0 lenticular galaxy NGC 1266 is unremarkable when observed in optical light (left, grayscale and black contours) very much an example of a "red and dead" galaxy but becomes alive and violent ...

In the Universe around us today, galaxies come in a number of different shapes and sizes. Lenticular galaxies are sort of blobby and formless, while spiral galaxies have defined spiral arms curving ...

The Milky Way has no fewer than 157, but more globular clusters are thought to exist within the innermost regions of the galaxy which are shrouded in an obscuring veil of gas and dust. Lenticular ...

The galaxy NGC 5084 has been known for centuries. It was first cataloged by William Herschel in 1785, and has been well studied since. It's what is known as a lenticular galaxy – one that's somewhere ...

Above is a striking image, also published in July 2021, of two enormous galaxies; a lenticular galaxy on the left called 2MASX J03193743+4137580 and a side-on spiral galaxy on the right named UGC ...

NGC 2814: This NASA Hubble Space Telescope image features NGC 2814, an irregular galaxy that lies about 85 million light-years from Earth. The lenticular galaxy NGC 5283 is the subject of this ...

SBb-type galaxies lie in between the two. SB0 is a barred lenticular galaxy. A new type, SBm, was subsequently created to describe somewhat irregular barred spirals, such as the Magellanic Clouds, ...

Hubble's visible and infrared capabilities captured this edge-on view of lenticular galaxy NGC 612. Lenticular galaxies have a central ... Astronomers using simulated data have produced a glimpse ...
