LEDA 83677 is a lenticular galaxy [2] located about 290 million light-years away [3] in the constellation Coma Berenices. [4] It is a member of the Coma cluster of galaxies. [5] LEDA 83677 is also classified as a type 1 Seyfert galaxy. [5] The core of the galaxy is emitting high-energy X-rays and ultraviolet light, probably caused by a massive black hole lurking in the core. [2]
