NGC 937

NGC 937 is a barred spiral galaxy located approximately 240 million light-years away in the constellation Andromeda. It was discovered by Édouard Stephan on November 30, 1878.

NGC 937 is classified as a SBb galaxy, indicating it has a prominent bar structure at its center and moderately tightly wound spiral arms. It's part of a larger group of galaxies, which means it gravitationally interacts with other galaxies in its vicinity. Studies of NGC 937 have focused on determining its redshift, distance, and star formation rate. Understanding these characteristics helps astronomers understand the formation and evolution of galaxies in general.
