NGC 1419
Galaxy in the constellation Eridanus
NGC 1419 is an elliptical galaxy [ 4] located 62 million light years away[ 2] in the constellation of Eridanus . The galaxy was discovered by astronomer John Herschel on October 22, 1835,[ 5] and is a member of the Fornax Cluster .[ 6] NGC 1419 is a host to a supermassive black hole with an estimated mass of 25 million solar masses .[ 7]
155 known globular clusters have been observed surrounding NGC 1419,[ 8] along with 21 planetary nebulae . These planetary nebulae reveal that the distance to NGC 1419 is approximately 18.9 Mpc , while measurements using surface brightness fluctuations reveal that NGC 1419 is approximately 22.9 ± 0.9 Mpc away. The measurements using planetary nebulae confirm that NGC 1419 is a member of the Fornax Cluster .[ 2]
