Can anybody refer me to an internet site discussing the E0 (ball type) galaxy? I'm most interested in a picture of ball type E0 galaxy. Hence: not a top view picture of a rugby ball type E1, or E2 type galaxy. Any E0 type galaxy known by name? Thanks! Martin, Netherlands.

From universe.colorado.edu Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image! E0 - NGC4486 (M87) This is an E0 galaxy. It is almost a perfect sphere. The major and minor axes are difficult to distinguish. Actually, this particular galaxy is considered an E0pec, where the pec means peculiar. The pec designation means it has some abnormal characteristics about it. In the case of M87, we see a jet of material that starts from the center of the nucleus and flows out for 1500 parsecs in the northwest direction. (The jet is not visible in this image.) http://webferret.search.com/click?wf,E0 galaxy,,www.seds.org/messier/m/m089.html,,fastsearch http://webferret.search.com/click?w..._gallery/elliptical_galaxies.html,,fastsearch Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image! from: An E0 galaxy Courtesy The Observatories of the Carnegie Institution of Washington http://webferret.search.com/click?wf,E0 galaxy,,www.astronomynotes.com/galaxy/s3.htm,,fastsearch http://webferret.search.com/click?w...e.ac.uk/edu/galaxies/ellipticals.html,,hotbot http://webferret.search.com/click?s...ttp://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap950913.html
