M106 Galaxy

M 106 (also known as NGC 4258) is a spiral galaxy visible in the constellation Canis Venatici; its interior appears to host a supermassive black hole.

M106 is an example of a Seyfert galaxy; the detection of unusual radio and X-ray emissions observed by the Very Large Baseline Array radio telescope indicates that it is probably part of.
