On this page I collect my observations of the spiral galaxy M 99 (Coma Pinwheel Galaxy) in the constellation Coma Berenices.
The spiral galaxy M 99 (Coma Pinwheel Galaxy) in the constellation Coma Berenices is almost seen face-on, similar to M 100 and M 101, but much smaller than M 101.
Size: 2.5' (Stoyan)
Distance: 60 million light years
Rating: * (Stoyan)
