NGC 1187 is a barred spiral galaxy located about 60 million light-years away in the constellation of Eridanus. It was discovered on December 9, 1784 by the astronomer William Herschel.[4]
Supernovae
[edit]Two supernovae have been observed in NGC 1187:
- SN 1982R (Type I, mag. 14.4) was discovered by A. Muller and O. Pizarro at the La Silla Observatory on 24 October 1982.[5][1][6]
- SN 2007Y (Type Ib-pec, mag. 17.5) was discovered by amateur astronomer Berto Monard on 15 February 2007.[7][8][9]
