NGC 4168
NGC 4168 is an elliptical galaxy in the constellation of Virgo. Its velocity with respect to the cosmic [microwave background] is, which corresponds to a Hubble distance of. However, 13 non-redshift measurements give a closer mean distance of. It was discovered by German-British astronomer William Herschel on 8 April 1784.
NGC 4168 is a Seyfert II galaxy, i.e. it has a quasar-like nucleus with very high surface brightnesses whose spectra reveal strong, high-ionisation emission lines, but unlike quasars, the host galaxy is clearly detectable.
