NGC 1310 is a barred spiral galaxy located in the southern constellation of Fornax. [2] It was discovered by English astronomer John Herschel on 22 October 1835. [4]

At a distance of 72 million light-years (22 Mpc) away from the Sun, [3] NGC 1310 is a member of the Fornax A subgroup of the Fornax Cluster of galaxies. [1]

In 1965, a supernova was discovered about 14 arcseconds east and 7 arcseconds south of the center of NGC 1310; it was subsequently designated SN 1965J. [5]

Messier 100 is a grand design intermediate spiral galaxy in the southern part of the mildly northern Coma Berenices. It is one of the brightest and largest galaxies in the Virgo Cluster and is approximately 55 million light-years from our galaxy, its diameter being 107,000 light years, and being about 60% as large. It was discovered by Pierre Méchain in 1781 and 29 days later seen again and entered by Charles Messier in his catalogue "of nebulae and star clusters".. It was one of the first spiral galaxies to be discovered, and was listed as one of fourteen spiral nebulae by Lord William Parsons of Rosse in 1850. NGC 4323 and NGC 4328 are satellite galaxies of M100; the former is connected with it by a bridge of luminous matter.
