M104, The Sombrero Galaxy, or NGC 4594 #Explored
Data for this image was taken with a 1m (1m0-04) telescope at CTIO (Cerro Tololo, Chile) operated by the Las Cumbres Observatory Global Telescope (LCOGT) Network. The Principal Investigator for this data set was BJ Fulton.
For this image I used publicly available data from the LCOGT Science Archive. The following filters were used:
SDSS I' for Red, V for Green and B for Blue.
This galaxy lies at a distance of about 28 million light years. Also in the image are numerous smaller galaxies including what looks like a pair of interacting galaxies just off the left and a little above M104's disk.
M104 is located in the constellation of Virgo.
