Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Also known as NGC 4406 it is an elliptical or lenticular galaxy in the constellation Virgo. M86 lies in the heart of the Virgo Cluster of galaxies and forms a most conspicuous group with another large galaxy known as Messier 84. It displays the highest blue shift of all Messier objects as it is approaching the Milky Way at 150 miles/s. This is due to both galaxies falling roughly towards the center of the Virgo cluster from opposing ends.
