Aquarius (constellation)

Aquarius is an equatorial constellation of the zodiac, between Capricornus and Pisces.

See NGC 7600 and Aquarius (constellation)

Epoch (astronomy)

In astronomy, an epoch or reference epoch is a moment in time used as a reference point for some time-varying astronomical quantity.

See NGC 7600 and Epoch (astronomy)

Galaxy

A galaxy is a system of stars, stellar remnants, interstellar gas, dust, and dark matter bound together by gravity.

See NGC 7600 and Galaxy

Lenticular galaxy

A lenticular galaxy (denoted S0) is a type of galaxy intermediate between an elliptical (denoted E) and a spiral galaxy in galaxy morphological classification schemes. NGC 7600 and lenticular galaxy are lenticular galaxies.

Light-year

A light-year, alternatively spelled light year (ly or lyr), is a unit of length used to express astronomical distances and is equal to exactly 9,460,730,472,580.8 km (Scientific notation: 9.4607304725808 × 1012 km), which is approximately 5.88 trillion mi.
