NGC 7479
NGC 7479 is a barred spiral galaxy located approximately 120 million light-years away in the constellation Pegasus. It is notable for its distinct bar structure and two prominent spiral arms, which give it a unique appearance among galaxies.
Discovered in 1784 by the astronomer William Herschel, NGC 7479 is classified as a type II Seyfert galaxy, indicating it has an active nucleus that emits strong radiation. This galaxy is also interacting with a smaller companion galaxy, which influences its shape and structure, making it an interesting subject for astronomers studying galaxy formation and evolution.
