NGC 2342

NGC 2342 is a faint spiral galaxy located in the constellation Gemini. It was discovered on November 10, 1864, by Albert Marth. The galaxy is estimated to be several million light-years away from Earth. Its visual appearance is that of a small, moderately inclined spiral, with a relatively low surface brightness. Little detailed information is readily available regarding its precise size, mass, or star formation rate. More in-depth astronomical studies would be required to determine these characteristics more accurately. Its designation as NGC 2342 comes from its entry in the New General Catalogue of Nebulae and Clusters of Stars.
