NGC 918
NGC 918 is a barred spiral galaxy in the constellation Aries, about 67 million light years from the Milky Way. It was discovered by John Herschel on Jan 11, 1831.
The brightness class of NGC 918 is III and it has a broad line of neutral hydrogen. NGC 918 is also an active nucleus galaxy (AGN). Moreover, it is a field galaxy which does not belong to a cluster or group and is therefore gravitationally isolated.
Many non-redshift measures give a distance of 19,115 ± 6,160 Mpc (~62,3 million ly), which is within the distances calculated using the value shift.
Two supernovae have been observed in NGC 918:
