The spiral galaxy 'Messier 63 (M63)' in the direction of the Hunting Dogs constellation is similar in size to our galaxy, but its shape is very different. While our galaxy has a bar-like structure composed of stars at its center, M63 takes the form of a spiral galaxy with multiple spiral arms wrapping around its center. M63 has a bright center, and its spiral arms extend beautifully, earning it the nickname 'Sunflower Galaxy.'
