Approximately 24 million light years
Considering the distance to the Cats Eye Nebula is only 3,300 light years away, it is going to be within our own Milky Way Galaxy.
Yes it is, as all stars that you can see with the naked eye are in the Milky Way galaxy.
The Black Eye Galaxy [See Link] has a redshift of 0.001361, so it is moving away from us. Currently at 24 million light years from Earth
That is simply called the Milky Way. It is the galaxy in which we live.
All stars visible with the naked eye are in the same Galaxy. Our galaxy, the Milky Way.
Any star bright enough to be seen with the naked eye is in the Milky Way galaxy.
No, the solar system is not in the centre of the galaxy, it's roughly halfway between the centre and the edge.The Milky Way is the galaxy that contains the Earth. This name derives from its appearance as a dim "milky" glowing band arching across the night sky, in which the naked eye cannot distinguish individual stars. our solar system is in the half way through the milky way.
Yes, the Earth is in the Milky Way. Every star you can see in the sky at night is also in the Milky Way. With the naked eye, you cannot see any stars that are not in the Milky Way. The next nearest galaxy is Andromeda and it is just about visible with the naked eye, looking like a hazy dust in the sky, but you would not see any stars in it. It is the furthest thing away that we can see with the naked eye. It is hard to be accurate but it is about 2,500,000 light years away. That is about 14,674,284,000,000,000,000 miles away. To see stars in it, you'd need a very powerful telescope.
Seyfert Galaxy
Basically, any star that can be seen with the naked eye is in our own galaxy - the Milky Way.
The closest irregular galaxy to us is the Large Magellanic Cloud, which is located around 163,000 light-years away from Earth. It is a satellite galaxy of the Milky Way and can be seen with the naked eye from the southern hemisphere.
The Andromeda galaxy is unique in being the galaxy nearest the Milky Way (the galaxy in which we live), as well as being the only 'foreign' galaxy visible to the naked eye.
