List of spiral galaxies

Short description: None

This list is incomplete; you can help by expanding it.

A spiral galaxy is a type of galaxy characterized by a central bulge of old Population II stars surrounded by a rotating disc of younger Population I stars. A spiral galaxy maintains its spiral arms due to density wave theory.
