NGC 300 (also known as Caldwell 70 or the Sculptor Pinwheel Galaxy [3]) is a spiral galaxy in the constellation Sculptor. It was discovered on 5 August 1826 by Scottish astronomer James Dunlop. [4] It is one of the closest galaxies to the Local Group, and it most likely lies between the latter and the Sculptor Group.

NGC 300，即科德韦尔70（Caldwell 70），是玉夫座的一个漩涡星系，是最接近本星系群的星系，并可能位于本星系群和玉夫座星系团之间。 该星系由詹姆士·丹露帕于1826年8月5日发现。

NGC 300，即 科德韋爾70 （Caldwell 70），是 玉夫座 的一個 漩渦星系，是最接近 本星系群 的星系，並可能位於本星系群和 玉夫座星系群 之間。 該星系由 詹姆士·丹露帕 於1826年8月5日發現。 它是玉夫座星系團方向五個主要的漩渦星系中最明亮的 [2]。 從地球上觀測，它的傾斜角是42°，並有許多方面和 三角座星系 相當類似 [4]。 NGC 300和 不規則星系 NGC 55 傳統上被認為是 玉夫座星系群 的成員，但最近的距離量測指出這兩個星系其實是該星系群的前景星系 [5]。 NGC 300 …

2024年8月23日 · Also known as NGC 300, Caldwell 70 is a member of a nearby collection of galaxies called the Sculptor group, named for the southern constellation where the galaxies can be found.

2008年9月30日 · Hubble's Advanced Camera for Surveys shows individual as well as clusters of stars in the spiral galaxy NGC 300, located approximately 7 million light-years away from Earth. In this image, a dense swarm of stars, patches of dust, and a bright star cluster are visible, all located near the nucleus of the galaxy.

NGC 300 (also known as Caldwell 70) is a spiral galaxy in the constellation Sculptor. It is one of the nearest galaxies to the Local Group. It probably lies between that and the Sculptor Group. The galaxy is the brightest of the five main spirals in the direction of the Sculptor Group. [1] .

An Sc-type spiral galaxy in the nearby Sculptor group of galaxies, NGC 300 shows typical flowing blue spiral arms, an expected compact nucleus, and the requisite amount of stars, star clusters, and nebulae.

2024年12月2日 · NGC 300 spans nearly the same amount of sky as the full moon and is visible with a small telescope toward the southern constellation of the Sculptor. The featured image was captured in October from Rio Hurtado, Chile and is a composite of over 20 hours of exposure. Tomorrow’s picture: red planet blues. 说明: 这个星系之所以看起来很不寻常，是因为其可见的恒星 …

2008年9月30日 · In this view of the spiral galaxy NGC 300, young, blue stars are concentrated in spiral arms that sweep diagonally through the image. The yellow blobs are glowing hot gas that has been heated by radiation from the nearest young, blue stars. NGC 300 is a member of the Sculptor Group of galaxies and it is located 7 million light-years away. Credit:
