NGC 6744 (also known as C101) is an intermediate spiral galaxy about 30 million light-years away in the constellation Pavo.
It is considered one of the most Milky Way-like spiral galaxies in our immediate vicinity, with flocculent (fluffy) arms and an elongated core.
It also has at least one distorted companion galaxy (NGC 6744A) superficially similar to one of the Magellanic Clouds. (WIKI)
