NGC 6041 is a barred spiral galaxy located approximately 100 million light-years away in the constellation Virgo. It is notable for its bright core and well-defined spiral arms, which are characteristic features of spiral galaxies. NGC 6041 is part of a larger group of galaxies known as the Virgo Cluster, which contains thousands of galaxies. The galaxy has an apparent magnitude of around 14.2, making it faint and challenging to observe with small telescopes. NGC 6041 is also of interest to astronomers studying galaxy formation and evolution due to its distinct structure and the presence of star-forming regions within its arms.
