Activity began in the Miocene and continued into the Holocene; a mural found in the archeological site of Çatalhöyük has been controversially interpreted as showing a volcanic eruption or even a primitive map.

NGC 6047 is an elliptical galaxy located about 430 million light-years away in the constellation Hercules. It was discovered by astronomer Lewis Swift on June 27, 1886. NGC 6047 is a member of the Hercules Cluster.

NGC 6047 has a peculiar morphology which suggests it has undergone a recent merger. It may be interacting with NGC 6045 which lies around ~320,000 ly (97 kpc) away. NGC 6047 has two radio jets and is classified as a FR I radio galaxy. The jets appear to have a Z-shaped structure.

Galaxy merger
Galaxy mergers can occur when two (or more) galaxies collide.  They are the most violent type of galaxy interaction. The gravitational interactions between galaxies and the friction between the gas and dust have major effects on the galaxies involved, but the exact effects of such mergers depend on a wide variety of parameters such as collision angles, speeds, and relative size/composition, and are currently an extremely active area of research. Galaxy mergers are important because the merger rate is a fundamental measurement of galaxy evolution and also provides astronomers with clues about how galaxies grew into their current forms over long stretches of time.
