NGC 7013
NGC 7013 is another
spiral galaxy. It is tilted slightly toward us so that we can
see the galaxy "arms", however, the classification of this
galaxy puts it into either a restricted spiral class or
lenticular class. The arms in the inner ring appear to
completely disconnect from the center (hence ring), while the
outer stars appear to have very little arm patter (hence
lenticular). The stats for this galaxy are RA: 21h 03m 33.5s,
Dec: +29° 53' 50", Mag: 12.4 (B), Size: 4.4'x1.4', and Class:
SA(r)0/a.
