One of the most impressive and photogenic galaxies in the universe.
The Hubble Space Telescope looked (back in the three summers of 2003) toward the constellation Virgo about 30 million light-years from Earth and discovered it – according to NASA “One of the most breathtaking and photogenic in the universe” its star city, the galaxy M104. The most striking feature is that a huge, dark trail of dust is visible in front of the galactic disk, giving it the appearance of a sombrero hat – hence its better known name, the Sombrero Galaxy:
This huge, dark dust trail is actually a symmetrical ring surrounding the galactic core, which is the cradle of star-forming regions. At the center of the core is a huge black hole with a billion solar mass.
