NGC 4093 is an elliptical galaxy located 340 million light-years away [2] in the constellation Coma Berenices. [3] The galaxy was discovered by astronomer Heinrich d'Arrest on May 4, 1864. [4] NGC 4093 is a member of the NGC 4065 Group [5] [6] [7] and is a radio galaxy [8] [9] [10] with a two sided jet. [10]

A rotating disk in the galaxy was detected by K. Geréb et al. [8]
