NGC 1620
NGC 1620 is an intermediate spiral galaxy in the constellation of Eridanus. Its velocity with respect to the cosmic microwave background is 3,455 ± 4 km/s, which corresponds to a Hubble distance of 166.2 ± 11.6 Mly (50.97 ± 3.57 Mpc). However, 20 non-redshift measurements give a closer distance of 130.02 ± 3.26 Mly (39.865 ± 1.001 Mpc). It was discovered by German-British astronomer William Herschel on 1 January 1786.
Two supernovae have been observed in NGC 1620:
According to A.M. Garcia, the galaxy NGC 1620 is part of the NGC 1589 Group (also known as LGG 117) that includes at least 8 other galaxies: NGC 1586, NGC 1587, NGC 1588, NGC 1589, UGC 3054, UGC 3058, UGC 3072 and UGC 3080.
