M95: 4 minute exposure

980326: M95 in a 4 minute exposure at f11 with 27 micron pixels. This is barred spiral. This object is fascinating to me because the spiral arms emanating from the bar tips are so tightly wound that they form a circle around the core. Overall it looks like the Greek letter Theta.
