NGC 3916 is a Spiral Galaxy in the Ursa Major constellation. NGC 3916 is situated north of the celestial equator and, as such, it is more easily visible from the northern hemisphere. Given its B magnitude of 14.8, NGC 3916 is visible with the help of a telescope having an aperture of 20 inches (500mm) or more.

2022年12月30日 · NGC 3916 is an Active Galactic Nuclei/Nucleus located in the constellation of Ursa Major in the northern hemisphere. NGC 3916 is called NGC 3916 in the New General Catalogue (NGC). This catalogue is a list of deep space objects compiled by John Louis Emil Dreyer in 1888 to update John Herschel's earlier work. NGC 3916 is not a Messier Object ...

2021年6月13日 · Physical Information: Based on a recessional velocity relative to the Cosmic Microwave Background radiation of 5905 km/sec (and H 0 = 70 km/sec/Mpc), NGC 3916 is about 275 million light years away. Given that and its apparent size of about 1.45 by 0.35 arcmin (from the images below), the galaxy is about 115 to 120 thousand light years across.

NGC 3916 est une galaxie spirale située dans la constellation de la Grande Ourse. Sa vitesse par rapport au fond diffus cosmologique est de 5 956 ± 12 km/s, ce qui correspond à une distance de Hubble de 87,9 ± 6,2 Mpc (∼287 millions d'al) [1]. NGC 3916 a été découverte par l'astronome germano-britannique William Herschel en 1789.
