NGC 6195
NGC 6195 is a large spiral galaxy in the constellation of Hercules. Its velocity with respect to the cosmic microwave background is, which corresponds to a Hubble distance of. Additionally, four non-redshift measurements give a farther mean distance of. It was discovered by German-British astronomer William Herschel on 30 May 1791.
NGC 6195 is a Seyfert I 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. It is also a LINER galaxy, i.e. a galaxy whose nucleus has an emission spectrum characterized by broad lines of weakly ionized atoms.
