The location of the supernova event was 16" from the relatively bright nucleus of the galaxy.
Its bright nucleus is home to older populations of stars, which grow more densely packed toward the center.
The galaxy has a very bright nucleus and a relatively faint disk.
It has a bright nucleus, an unusually large central bulge, and a prominent dust lane in its inclined disk.
It also contradicts the accepted model that quasars are bright nuclei of very distant galaxies.
The bright nucleus is home to an older population of stars, which grow ever more densely packed toward the center.
They both have point-like bright nuclei, are narrow-waisted bipolar nebulae, and share surprisingly similar spatially dependent spectra.
In the eyepiece, it is a small galaxy of magnitude 10 with dimensions of 5 arcminutes by 2 arcminutes and a bright nucleus.
Large amateur telescopes - above 12 inches aperture - reveal its spiral arms, bar, and small, bright nucleus.
The galaxy has a relatively bright nucleus and a bright disk that contains multiple dust lanes.
