NGC 5996 is a barred spiral galaxy in the constellation Serpens. The galaxy lies about 125 million light years away from Earth, which means, given its apparent dimensions, that NGC 5996 is approximately 65,000 light years across. [1]

NGC 5996 is a Barred Spiral Galaxy in the constellation. NGC 5996 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 13.2, NGC 5996 is visible with the help of a telescope having an aperture of 10 inches (250mm) or more.
