NGC 4414

NGC 4414 is an unbarred spiral galaxy about 62 million light-years away in the constellation Coma Berenices. It is a flocculent spiral galaxy, with short segments of spiral structure but without the dramatic well-defined spiral arms of a grand design spiral. In 1974 a supernova, SN 1974G, was observed and was the only supernova in this galaxy to be recorded until June 7, 2013 when SN 2013df was discovered at magnitude 14 and January 1, 2021 when SN 2021J was discovered at magnitude 12. NGC 4414 is a member of the Coma I Group, a group of galaxies lying physically close to the Virgo Cluster.
