NGC 7260 (NGC 7257) is an intermediate spiral galaxy located in the constellation Aquarius. It is a peculiar galaxy.

NGC 7257 is a Intermediate Spiral Galaxy in the Aquarius constellation. NGC 7257 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.

A NASA Hubble Space Telescope (HST) image of the core of the peculiar galaxy NGC 7252 reveals a striking "mini-spiral" disk of gas and stars, and about 40 exceptionally bright and young globular star clusters. The strong spiral structure is 10,000 light-years across (7 arc seconds); the entire picture is 46,000 light-years across.

2024年7月9日 · Physical Information: Based on a recessional velocity relative to the Cosmic Microwave Background radiation of 4550 km/sec (and H0 = 70 km/sec/Mpc), NGC 7257/60 is about 210 to 215 million light-years away, in good agreement with redshift-independent distance estimates of about 200 to 255 million light-years.

NGC 7257 is a Spiral Galaxy located in the constellation of Aquarius in the equatorial region. NGC 7257's distance from Earth is 220,000,000.00 light years. NGC 7257 is called NGC 7257 in the New General Catalogue (NGC).

This Astrobin Debut Object, also known as NGC 7257, is a spiral galaxy located 230 million light years away in the constellation of Aquarius at a declination of -4 degrees. It is a magnitude 12 galaxy which spans 1.6 arc-minutes in our apparent view. This corresponds to a diameter of 105,000 light years.

Corwin's Notes ===== NGC 7257 = NGC 7260. Marth's position is 24 seconds of time too far west, and 5.5 arcmin too far north, roughly the same offsets as for NGC 7266 which he found on the same night. This makes N7257 identical to N7260, one of Stephan's micrometrically-measured discoveries.
