Barred?

edit

According to which source is it a barred spiral galaxy? Looking at the Hubble picture, I can't seem to discern any bar, and the Hubble-caption doesn't state that it's barred, either. --Harald Khan Ճ 11:35, 17 July 2008 (UTC)Reply

"from left to right from the perspective of Earth"

edit

The quoted passage doesn't make any sense. What "perspective" does earth have? This is a circumpolar object for much of the Northern hemisphere, which means half the hemisphere will be seeing it from the reverse perspective of the other half at any one time. --Suttkus (talk) 03:10, 12 December 2018 (UTC)Reply
