Sombrero Galaxy Galaxy M104 has the rather more attractive alternate name of the Sombrero Galaxy, due to its distinctive shape reminiscent of Mexican headwear. The galaxy’s bright nucleus, bulge of central light and dark ring of dust lend it this unusual shape. In the 1990s scientists discovered that a super massive black hole is located at the centre of this formation. Found at http://buff.ly/ITETuQ
