NGC 1460 is a barred lenticular galaxy with a peanut-shaped bar[2] approximately 65 million light-years away[4] from Earth in the constellation of Eridanus. It was discovered by astronomer John Herschel on November 28, 1837.[5] It is a member of the Fornax cluster.[6]
NGC 1460 is host to a nuclear star cluster with an estimated mass of around 6.7 × 107 M☉,[7] and is also host to a supermassive black hole with an estimated mass of around 6 × 106 M☉.[8] It is also home to a population of around 39 observed globular clusters.[9] There is also a population of 89 planetary nebulae, with 39 of them being observed in the center of the galaxy and 50 of them being observed in the halo of the galaxy.[10]
