NGC 5683

NGC 5683 is a spiral galaxy located in the constellation Boötes. It is estimated to be approximately 210 million light-years away from Earth. This galaxy was discovered on April 3, 1785, by William Herschel.

NGC 5683 is classified as a Sc galaxy, indicating a spiral galaxy with loosely wound arms. While detailed observations regarding its star formation rate, metallicity, and specific morphological features are available in professional astronomical databases and publications, readily accessible, popularized information about NGC 5683 is somewhat limited compared to brighter and closer galaxies. Astronomers use observations of NGC 5683, along with other galaxies at similar distances and redshifts, to understand the large-scale structure and evolution of the universe. Studies often incorporate spectral analysis to determine the composition and dynamics of its constituent stars and gas.
