NGC 1450 (= PGC 13775)
Discovered (Oct 22, 1886) by Lewis Swift (5-56)
A 14th-magnitude galaxy (type E-S0?) in Eridanus (RA 03 45 36.5, Dec -09 14 05)
The second IC lists a corrected RA (per Howe) of 03 38 52.
Based on recessional velocity of 11065 km/sec, about 500 million light years away. Given that and apparent size of 0.9 by 0.8 arcmin, about 130 thousand light years in diameter. |
