Distance

[edit]

Per the SIMBAD 'distance' measurements entry, the following reference:

Crook, Aidan C.; Huchra, John P.; Martimbeau, Nathalie; Masters, Karen L.; Jarrett, Tom; Macri, Lucas M. (2007). "Groups of Galaxies in the Two Micron All Sky Redshift Survey". The Astrophysical Journal. 655 (2): 79–813. Bibcode:2007ApJ...655..790C. doi:10.1086/510201. {{cite journal}}: Unknown parameter |month= ignored (help)CS1 maint: multiple names: authors list (link)

gives a distance estimate of about 20 mpc (65 mly) rather than 55 mly.—RJH (talk) 18:10, 16 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Is this sentence too long to be readable?

[edit]

"As usual on spiral galaxies of the Virgo Cluster, in the rest of the disk both star formation and neutral hydrogen, of which M100 is deficient compared to isolated spiral galaxies of similar Hubble type, are truncated within the galaxy's disk, which is caused by interactions with the intracluster medium of Virgo."

Yes! The comparison between M100 and Hubble type galaxies is wedged into a sentence about star formation regions. The sentence is ambiguous WRT which is deficient, star formation or neutral hydrogen. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Targa86 (talkcontribs) 19:07, 4 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
