NGC 1536 is a peculiar barred spiral galaxy located around 57 million light-years away in the constellation Reticulum.[1][2][3] It was discovered on December 4th, 1834 by the English astronomer John Herschel, and it has a diameter around 42,000 light-years.[1][2][4] NGC 1536 is not known to have much star-formation, and it is not known to have an active galactic nucleus.[1][2]
SN 1997D
SN 1997D was a Type II Supernova in NGC 1536 discovered by Duília de Mello on 14 January 1997.[5] SN 1997D had a low expansion velocity, and it is believed that the explosion produced a stellar mass black hole, instead of a neutron star. SN 1997D was located in the southernmost part of NGC 1536.[6]
