On this page I collect my observations of the spiral galaxies NGC 5005 and NGC 5033 in the constellation Virgo.
The oblique spiral galaxy NGC 5005 in the constellation Virgo has a relatively bright nucleus and a bright disk that contains multiple dust lanes. This can, however, not clearly be seen in the eVscope.
NGC 5033 is a spiral galaxy with extensive star-forming regions. The galaxy has an active galactic nucleus with a supermassive black hole.
NGC 5033 and NGC 5005 form a pair the members of which influence each other weakly.
Further nearby NGC galaxies are NGC 5002 and NGC 5014 (in a Vespera Pro photo).
