Barred Spiral Galaxy NGC 4236 This mostly blue barred spiral is not displayed at its best as it is almost exactly edge-on to our line of sight. Located in Draco it is part of the M81 group of galaxies. This group iwould have long ago dispersed if it wasn't for the presence on dark matter holding the cluster together. NGC 4236 is thought to be around 14.5 million light years away. David R. Keywords: NGC 4236
