list of nearest galaxies

This list of the nearest galaxies to Earth is ordered by increasing distance. Many of the distances are only rough estimates, and some may be incorrect by 50% or more. Therefore, the distance ranking in this list should be seen only as approximate. Distances are given in light years (ly). Earth>
