10 AMAZING FACTS ABOUT LENTICULAR GALAXIES
A lenticular galaxy is a type of galaxy on the Hubble sequence classification scheme
These are also referred to as armless-spirals and armless-disc galaxies
4
These have either used up or lost most of its interstellar matter(dust and gas), which reduces or prevents the formation of stars
5
Most lenticular galaxies are very old and have stars that are far down the stellar evolution process
6
They have a large disc, but no spiral arms
7
An example of a lenticular galaxy is the Cartwheel Galaxy, also known as ESO 350-40 and PGC 2248
8
An example of a SO lenticular galaxy is messier 86, also known as NGC 4406
9
Most lenticular galaxies have central bulges and seem to have differences in their rotational actions from other galaxies
10
Astronomers have identified a related class of galaxies called anemic spirals, where with the passage of time the spiral arms fade, and they appear indistinguishable from lenticular galaxies
