Abstract

NGC 6251, a 14th mag elliptical galaxy, was shown by Waggett et al. (1977) to have large-scale radio emission features with a total angular extent of ∼ 1.1°, which corresponds to a projected linear size of about 1.7 Mpc (HO = 75 km s−1 Mpc−1). A bright radio jet links a central core source embedded in NGC 6251 to the extended emission on the northwest side of the galaxy.
