Difference between Hubble sequence and Messier 87

Hubble sequence vs. Messier 87

The Hubble sequence is a morphological classification scheme for galaxies invented by Edwin Hubble in 1926. Messier 87 (also known as Virgo A or NGC 4486, generally abbreviated to M87) is a supergiant elliptical galaxy in the constellation Virgo.

Similarities between Hubble sequence and Messier 87

Hubble sequence and Messier 87 have 12 things in common (in Unionpedia): Dust lane, Edwin Hubble, Elliptical galaxy, Galaxy morphological classification, Gérard de Vaucouleurs, Lenticular galaxy, Messier 49, Messier 86, Milky Way, Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, Spiral galaxy, Star.

Dust lane

A dust lane is a relatively dense obscuring band of interstellar dust, observed as a dark swath against the background of a brighter object, especially a galaxy.
