Type c-D elliptical galaxies are a subtype of giant elliptical galaxies and are characterized by a large halo of stars. Lenticular galaxies are an intermediate galaxy between elliptical galaxies and ...

Galaxy Arp 184, however, we are seeing from an angle, so it looks different. More than that, though, Arp 184 is skewed so that it isn’t perfectly spiral shaped.

In 1994, Hubble's Wide Field Planetary Camera-2 captured an image of an object at the center of M87, a giant elliptical galaxy 50 million light-years away.

But, while most FRBs originate well within their galaxies, the team traced FRB 20240209A to the outskirts of its home — 130,000 lightyears from the galaxy’s center where few other stars exist.
