Luminous Galaxies Within 57 Mly
All (total of 427) galaxies within 57 million light years (Mly) with an absolute B magnitude less than -18.4 (the more negative the absolute magnitude, the more luminous, the more intrinsically bright the galaxy. The absolute magnitude of the Milky Way galaxy is estimated to be -20.8). Data is from: The 50 Mpc Galaxy Catalog (50 MGC): Consistent and Homogeneous Masses, Distances, Colors, and Morphologies. David Ohlson, Anil C. Seth, Elena Gallo, Vivienne F. Baldassare, and Jenny E. Greene, The Astronomical Journal, 167:31 (18pp), 2024 January. Cutoff at 57 million light years (Mly) takes us into the Virgo Cluster (visible as the cluster of galaxies near the end of the "To Virgo Cluster" axis). The base grid parallels the supergalactic plane, and lies 54.7 million light years (Mly) below the actual supergalactic plane. The actual supergalactic plane is visible as the second grid above the base grid. The few labeled galaxies are galaxies in the Messier catalog (Other galaxies are labeled in the additional views below by subsets of absolute magnitude).
