M-108
Description: spiral galaxy
Large, about 10'x3' extended ENE-WSW. This galaxy has an evident central bulge, a stellar nucleus, and tapering ends. The western end appears to be tapered more than the eastern end, and dark markings are seen along its northern edge. The nearly edge-on galaxy M108 appears to have no bulge and no pronounced core at all, it is just a detail-rich mottled disk with heavy obscuration along the major axis.
