Encyclopedic overview

NGC 4136 is a barred spiral galaxy in the constellation of Coma Berenices. Its velocity with respect to the cosmic microwave background is 893±20 km/s, which corresponds to a Hubble distance of 43.0 ± 3.2 Mly (13.17 ± 0.97 Mpc). Additionally, seven non-redshift measurements give a distance of 37.53 ± 4.85 Mly (11.506 ± 1.488 Mpc). It was discovered by German-British astronomer William Herschel on 13 March 1785.
