NGC 1270 is a spiral galaxy located in the constellation Perseus. It is part of the Perseus Cluster, which is a group of galaxies that are gravitationally bound together. NGC 1270 is approximately 220 million light-years away from Earth and has a diameter of about 100,000 light-years. This galaxy is notable for its bright core and the presence of a supermassive black hole at its center. Observations of NGC 1270 have contributed to our understanding of galaxy formation and evolution, as well as the dynamics of galaxy clusters like the Perseus Cluster.
