What is NGC 428?
NGC 428 is a barred spiral galaxy in the constellation Cetus (The Sea Monster) whose spiral structure is distorted and bent, possibly due to the collision of two galaxies. The spiral structure of NGC 428 is distorted and bent, possibly due to the collision of two galaxies, and it is still responsible for a healthy amount of star formation – another telltale sign of the union of two galaxies. The following image is of NGC 428 from the Digitised Sky Survey 2 (DSS2 – see imprint), taken in the red channel. NGC 428 – Intermediate Spiral(SABm) galaxy in Cetus is classified as Intermediate Spiral(SABm) according to the Hubble and de Vaucouleurs morphological classification.
