A Virgo cluster galaxy image
This Intermediate Spiral Galaxy — Dubbed NGC 4654 — Is Located In The Constellation Virgo About 55 Million Light-Years From Earth. Skygazers In The Northern Hemisphere, And In Most Of The Southern Hemisphere, Can Spot It From Earth.

Like other Virgo cluster galaxies, NGC 4654 has “an asymmetric distribution of stars and neutral hydrogen gas,” according to NASA. The agency noted that this galaxy and others like it are useful for researchers to help understand the connection between young stars and cold gas, which those stars require in order to form in the first place.
