NASA Hubble Sights Galaxy’s Celestial Sequins


This smattering of celestial sequins is a spiral galaxy named NGC 4455, located in the northern constellation of Coma Berenices (Berenice’s Hair). This might sound like an odd name for a constellation — and in fact it is somewhat unusual. It’s the only modern constellation named in honor of a real person from history: Queen Berenice II of Egypt. via NASA http://www.nasa.gov/image-feature/goddard/2020/hubble-sights-galaxy-s-celestial-sequins
