NGC 4151 Galaxy
NGC 4151 in Canes Venatici
is an intermediate, spiral Seyfert galaxy with a weak inner ring structure. Seyfert galaxies have bright, active nuclei, emitting in UV and X-ray.
Located 52,000,000 light-years from Earth, it was discovered by William Herschel in 1787.
The galaxy is a member of a group of eight other galaxies known as the NGC 4151 Group, part of the Ursa Major Cloud of the Virgo Supercluster.
At 1 o'clock is the barred spiral, NGC 4156 with the much more distant, PGC 2151005 atop it. At 7 o'clock is PGC 3096100
After a good deal of research, the very interesting galaxy at 9 o'clock appears to be UGC 07188.
