NGC 1015 is a barred spiral galaxy,[7] at a distance of 118 million light years[6] in the constellation of Cetus (The Whale).[1] It was discovered by German astronomer Wilhelm Tempel on 27 December 1875.[8] Emissions from the core region satisfy the criteria for an active galactic nucleus of type 2 Seyfert and a LINER galaxy.[9]

Supernova

One supernova has been observed in NGC 1015. SN 2009ig (Type Ia,[7] mag. 17.5) was discovered by the Lick Observatory Supernova Search (LOSS) on 20 August 2009.[10][11][12] It got as bright as magnitude 13, making it the brightest supernova of 2009.[13]
