NGC 7535 is a late spiral galaxy in Pegasus, 156 million light-years away
NGC 7535 (PGC 070761) is a late spiral galaxy in the constellation Pegasus , 156 million light-years away. It shines at magnitude 13.7 and spans 1.5′ of sky, about 66,100 light-years across. It is faint: a 10-inch or larger telescope, or a camera, and it is highest in the evening sky in October.
Galaxy: a system of billions of stars, gas and dust held together by gravity, far outside the Milky Way. Spiral galaxies have a disk with arms; elliptical galaxies are smooth, round or oval swarms of older stars.
