UGC 11105, also known as PGC 61361, is a relatively nearby spiral galaxy located 109 million light-years (33.4 Mpc) away in the Hercules constellation. [2] [3] The galaxy is outshone by bright stars in the foreground. [3] From the perspective on Earth, the Sun is 14 thousand trillion times brighter as compared to UGC 11105, if we to calculate the apparent magnitude for both objects. [3] It is a possible active galactic nucleus candidate, according to SIMBAD. [1]
