Sombrero Galaxy (also known as Messier Object 104. M104 or NGC 4594) is an unbarred spiral galaxy in the constellation Virgo located 31 million light-years (9.5 Mpc)2 from Earth. The galaxy has a diameter of approximately 50.000 light-years. 30% the size of the Milky Way. It has a bright nucleus. an unusually large central bulge. and a prominent dust lane in its inclined disk. The dark dust lane and the bulge give this galaxy the appearance of a sombrero. Astronomers initially thought that the halo was small and light. indicative of a spiral galaxy. but Spitzer found that the halo around the Sombrero Galaxy is larger and more massive than previously thought. indicative of a giant elliptical galaxy.3 The galaxy has an apparent magnitude of +9.0. making it easily visible with amateur telescopes. and it is considered by some authors to be the brightest galaxy within a radius of 10 megaparsecs of the Milky Way. Its large bulge. its central supermassive black hole. and its dust lane all attract the attention of professional astronomers.
