NGC 210 Galaxy
NGC 210 in Cetus
is a spiral galaxy, located about 67,000,000 light-years away. Discovered in 1785 by William Herschel, NGC 210 is an SAB(s)b galaxy.
Its unusual arms lead researchers to believe that NGC 210 will morph into a ring galaxy.
Its nucleus appears to be lenticular with a prominent dust lane. At 7 o'clock is galaxy PGC2454, and at 5 o'clock, PGC 169998.
