Lenticular galaxies are systems whose dark matter, interstellar dust and gas, stars, and stellar remnants are bound together gravitationally as intermediates between elliptical and spiral galaxies. Like spiral galaxies, they have little or no interstellar matter for ongoing star formation. But like elliptical galaxies, they have quite a bit of dust in their disks, qualify as early galaxies on the process of passive evolution, and shelter aging stars.
