OH gigamaser emission has been detected in the luminous FIR galaxy IRAS 14070 + 0525 at a redshift of 0.265. The FIR luminosity of IRAS 14070 + 0525 is 10 exp 12.5 solar luminosities. The OH line luminosity is 14,000 solar luminosities, making it the most luminous known OH emitter. The OH line emission covers a velocity range of approximately 2400 km/s. Two distinct components in the OH emission reveal a powerful outflow component and/or the interactive nature of the system.
