NGC 4294 is a barred spiral galaxy [2] with flocculent spiral arms [3] located about 55 million light-years away [2] in the constellation Virgo. The galaxy was discovered by astronomer William Herschel on March 15, 1784 [4] and is a member of the Virgo Cluster. [5][6][7]

NGC 4294 is a Galaxy in the Virgo constellation. NGC 4294 is situated close to the celestial equator and, as such, it is at least partly visible from both hemispheres in certain times of the year. Given its B magnitude of 12.6, NGC 4294 is visible with the help of a telescope having an aperture of 10 inches (250mm) or more.

From Virginia Beach , NGC4294 is visible in the morning sky, becoming accessible around 21:54, when it reaches an altitude of 21° above your eastern horizon. It will then reach its highest point in the sky at 02:38, 64° above your southern horizon. It will be lost to dawn twilight around 05:46, 40° above your western horizon.

A Comparison of Hα and Stellar Scale Lengths in Virgo and Field SpiralsThe scale lengths of the old stars and ionized gas distributions arecompared for similar samples of Virgo Cluster members and field spiralgalaxies via Hα and broad R-band surface photometry. While theR-band and Hα scale lengths are, on average, comparable for thecombined sample, we find significant differences between ...
