Virgo II Group
The Virgo II Group is a collection of galaxies located in the constellation of Virgo. It is part of the larger Virgo Supercluster, which contains thousands of galaxies. The group includes several notable members, such as the spiral galaxy M86 and the elliptical galaxy M84. These galaxies are relatively close to each other in space, making them an interesting subject for astronomers studying galaxy formation and interaction.
The Virgo II Group is characterized by its diverse range of galaxy types, including spiral, elliptical, and irregular galaxies. This variety provides insights into the different evolutionary paths that galaxies can take. Observations of the group help scientists understand the dynamics of galaxy clusters and the gravitational forces at play within them.
