The Pinwheel Galaxy (also known as Messier 101 or NGC 5457) is a face-on spiral galaxy distanced 21 million light-years (six megaparsecs away in the constellation Ursa Major
M101 is a relatively large galaxy compared to the Milky Way. With a diameter of 170,000 light-years it is seventy percent larger than the Milky Way.
It has a disk mass on the order of 100 billion solar masses, along with a small bulge of about 3 billion solar masses.

It is likely a spiral galaxy. Spiral galaxies are characterized by their pinwheel shape and are composed of a central bulge surrounded by spiral arms containing stars, gas, and dust. Examples of spiral galaxies include the Milky Way and the Andromeda Galaxy.
Messier 101 or Pinwheel Galaxy is about 23.5 million light years from us. Way too far to see a star, let alone name one. Even less chance of detecting a planet. So Uriel is science fiction.

the pinwheel galaxy is also known as Messier 101 or NGC 5457
A spiral galaxy has the shape of a pinwheel. Our solar system is in a spiral galaxy that we call the Milky Way.
A Spiral Galaxy or a Barred Spiral. These are two of the main types of Galaxies.
Do you want the name of a specific one or just something that sounds more intellectual than "You know, those PINWHEEL shaped ones"? The correct terminology is spiral galaxy. As for an example, the Milky Way is a barred spiral galaxy.
The "pinwheel" shape is usually called "spiral".
Milky Way and Pinwheel (Messier 101, M101) are two known galaxies. The galaxy that includes the Solar System is the Milky way.
