Category: Spiral galaxy
Constellation: Peg
Data: mag 9.5 size 11.4'

Description: This nearly-edge on spiral consists
of a pretty little wedge of light that widens to
engulf a very tight central condensation, then
tapers off much more rapidly on the other side.
Relatively easy to find as it makes a neat tri-
angle pattern with Beta and Eta Peg.
