NGC 6679 is a barred spiral galaxy located approximately 60 million light-years away in the constellation Perseus. It was discovered by the astronomer William Herschel in 1784. This galaxy is notable for its bright core and well-defined spiral arms, which are characteristic features of barred spiral galaxies. The galaxy is part of a larger group of galaxies and is often studied for its star formation activity. Observations of NGC 6679 have provided insights into the processes that govern galaxy evolution and the dynamics of its stellar population.
