A living map of the solar system
Leo II — galaxy, explore its interactive 3D model in Cosmoscope.
Explore Leo II in an interactive 3D view of space. See its catalogue position, distance and astronomical facts.
A small, round ball of old stars far out in the Milky Way’s halo, almost spherical and almost entirely ancient.
Leo II is placed in three-dimensional space using catalogue coordinates and an adopted astronomical distance. Rotate and zoom to explore the model. Stellar surfaces, gas structure and dust depths may be reconstructed or illustrative, as described in its facts; this is not live imagery from a telescope.
