M98 is an intermediate-barred spiral galaxy lying 44 million high-years from Earth in the constellation Coma Berenices. It may have interacted with the M99, the Little Pinwheel Galaxy in Coma Berenices about 750 million years ago. It is a galaxy that is actually blue shifted because it is heading toward us at a velocity of 140 km/second.
