NGC 2133 is a barred spiral galaxy located approximately 70 million light-years away in the constellation Hydra. It is part of the LMC (Local Group of galaxies) and is notable for its bright core and well-defined spiral arms, which are characteristic features of barred spiral galaxies. Discovered by the astronomer John Herschel in 1834, NGC 2133 has a visual magnitude of about 11.5, making it a faint object that requires a telescope to observe. Its structure and composition provide valuable insights into the formation and evolution of galaxies in the universe.
