GO ASTRONOMY | Top 10 Seyfert Galaxies - Quasar Cousins @goastronomy | Uploaded July 2024 | Updated October 2024, 13 hours ago.
Seyfert galaxies host an active galactic nucleus (AGN), which means they are very bright. In fact, they are the less energetic cousins of quasars. Here are the top 10 brightest Seyfert galaxies:
1. Centaurus A - Centaurus,
2. Bodes's Galaxy (M81) - Ursa Major,
3. Messier 106 - Canes Venatici,
4. Whirlpool Galaxy (M51) - Canes Venatici,
5. Black Eye Galaxy - Coma Berenices,
6. Squid Galaxy (M77) - Cetus,
7. Messier 88 - Coma Berenices,
8. NGC 4725 - Coma Berenices,
9. NGC 1097 - Fornax,
10. Spanish Dancer - Dorado.
