 Galaxy Hopping Though Leo the Lion
The hop is an easy one, moving south about 2-3 degrees to 5th magnitude 73 Leonis and one degree east to the galaxies.
This may be 1 or 2 fields of view away from 52 Leonis depending on your telescope and eyepiece combination.
A magnitude 6.9 star is immediately to the north of M65 and M66.

 Spiral (and other Disk) Galaxies
the disk around the center of M87, which is often regarded as the accretion disk around the supermassive object in that galaxy's nucleus, may be a smaller manifestation of the same disk phenomenon.

These structures have been a mystery for a long time, it was thought that there may be physically different classes of disks (e.g., "normal" and "barred" disks), but now it seems as if they are all the consequences of gravitational interactions with neighboring galaxies.

 Spiral Galaxy M95 (NGC 3351)
The bright spiral galaxy Messier 95 (NGC 3351) in Leo, shown from a red-light CCD exposure with an RCA CCD at the 1.1-meter Hall telescope of Lowell Observatory.
The field is 3.6 by 6.0 arcminutes, which doesn't cover the whole galaxy (the bigger TI CCDs had gone to Australia at the time, to support observations of the Shoemaker-Levy 9 impact).
This display uses a logarithmic intensity transformation to preserve information across a wide dynamic range.

 M95-M96
Exposure: LRGB: L 10 x 4 minutes, binned 1x1: R 4 x 6 minutes: G 3 x 6 minutes: B 5 x 6 minutes: RGB binned 2x2
Moderately large telescopes are required to see the spiral structures.
Located 38 million light-years from the solar system, they are visible in binculars and small telescopes.

 Messier Object 95
A preliminary result has been obtained and published in 1996-97 by the HST H0 Key Project Team (paper VII, 1997).
M95 is a barred spiral of type SBb, or SB(r)ab according to de Vaucouleurs' classification, with nearly circular arms.
M95 is a member of the Leo I or M96 group, which also contains M96, M105 and a number of fainter galaxies.

 NGC 3351, Messier 95
While the 'bar' is the dominant feature in a picture taken from afar, it is easy to imagine that this structure could be very difficult to detect from inside the galaxy, especially if seen from a position at right angles to it.
Though the exact form of our own galaxy, the Milky Way, is not known, there is increasing evidence that it is a barred spiral, perhaps like M95.
Despite the distance, several of these galaxies appear in Messier's catalogue, about one third of which consists of galaxies.

 M-95, barred Spiral Galaxy
This cluster includes other bright members, like spiral galaxies M-65 and M-66, plus numerous smaller systems.
Note that the spiral arms do continue on into very faint extensions.
There are three major complexes of H-II regions, whose high content of O stars gives a young age to the burst.

This galaxy, which is part of the Leo
