PKS 1741-03 is a blazar[1] located in the constellation of Ophiuchus. This is core-dominated quasar located at a redshift of (z) 1.054, found to be highly polarized.[2] It was first discovered in 1970 as an extragalactic radio source by astronomers[3] and has a radio spectrum appearing to be flat, making it a flat-spectrum source.[4]
