Rotation curves extending to large radial distances are now available for 3 spiral galaxies, each of a different type. Differences in shape of the rotation curves indicate a mass distribution that is related to structural type and is in the same sense as the luminosity distribution for these galaxies. The shapes of the rotation curves at large radii indicate a significant amount of matter at these large distances and imply that spiral galaxies are larger than found from photometric measurements.
