[Report from Italian Supernovae Search Project]
NGC 4414 is an unbarred spiral galaxy about 62 million light-years away in the
constellation Coma Berenices. It is a flocculent galaxy, with short segments
of spiral structure but without the dramatic well-defined spiral arms of a grand
design spiral. In 1974 a supernova, SN 1974G, was observed and is the only
supernova in this galaxy to be recorded so far. NGC 4414 is also a very isolated galaxy without
signs of past interactions with other galaxies[4] and despite not being a starburst
galaxy shows a high density and richness of gas -both atomic and molecular, with
the former extending far beyond its optical disk.
