IC 4214 is a barred spiral galaxy[7] in the constellation Centaurus.[1] It's classified as a type SBaB galaxy.[2] It was first discovered in 1897 by astronomer Lewis Swift.[3] The galaxy is approximately 100 thousand light-years across.[3]
IC 4214 is a three-ringed structure, with its nuclear, inner, and outer rings.[8] A weak bar feature is present.[9]
