NGC 4221 is a barred lenticular galaxy located about 75.9 million light-years (23.28 megaparsecs) away[3] in the constellation of Draco. It was discovered on April 3, 1832, by the astronomer John Herschel.[5] NGC 4221 is notable for having an outer ring[6] that surrounds the inner barred central region of the galaxy.[5]
