NGC 6552 is a Barred Spiral Galaxy in the Draco constellation. NGC 6552 is situated close to the northern celestial pole and, as such, it is visible for most part of the year from the northern hemisphere. Given its B magnitude of 14.6, NGC 6552 is visible with the help of a telescope having an aperture of 20 inches (500mm) or more.

最近，天文学家使用詹姆斯·韦伯太空望远镜（JWST）的中红外仪器（MIRI）观察了一个名为NGC 6552的星系。 通过对这个星系的观测，他们发现了一个核高电离喷流，这是首次在这个星系中观测到。

NGC 6552 is a barred spiral galaxy located in the constellation of Draco. The NGC is a catalog of 7,840 nebulae, star clusters, and galaxies. Here are the key stats on NGC 6552: NGC 6552 is a galaxyin the constellation of Draco.

From Redmond , NGC6552 is visible all night because it is circumpolar. It will be highest in the sky shortly before dawn, when it will be lost to twilight at around 05:53, 68° above your …

1994年5月1日 · A serendipitous observation of the Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC 6552 by the ASCA Gas Imaging Spectrometer shows this object to have a remarkable X-ray spectrum. It displays a strong K α line of neutral iron, in addition to low-energy structure. Here we present a model in which reflection from neutral matter dominates the X-ray spectrum.

In supplement to the nebula the ringed Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC 6552 in approx. 360 millions light years distance is shining to the right. North is down. Below you see a close-up on the bright …

NGC 6552 (također poznat kao IRAS 18001+6638, MCG 11-22-18, PGC 61252 i UGC 11096) je prečkasta spiralna galaksija koja je udaljena oko 365 miliona sg od Zemlje i nalazi se u sazviježđu Zmaj. Najveći prečnik je 1,00 (106 hiljada sg) a najmanji 0,7 uglovnih minuta (74 hiljade sg).

A hard X-ray source with a 2-10 keV flux of approximately 6 x 10 (exp -13) ergs/sec/sq cm was detected with ASCA in the north ecliptic pole region. It is identified with the spiral galaxy NGC 6552 at a redshift of z = 0.026, which is optically classified as a Seyfert 2 galaxy.

NGC 6552 este o astronomical radio source⁠ (d) situată în constelația Dragonul. [3][4][5] A fost descoperită în 6 octombrie 1866 de către Heinrich Louis d'Arrest.
