NGC 2992 is a nearby Seyfert galaxy (z=0.008, 1″=150 pc, for HO=75 km s−1 Mpc−1) seen almost edge-on (i=70°). A dust lane crossing the galaxy has been detected (Burbidge et al. 1972, see also Fig. 1) and the presence of two extended radio-emitting regions at position angles P.A. 130° and P.A. 160° has been reported (Ulvestad and Wilson, 1984).
