NGC 1482 is a lenticular galaxy in the constellation of Eridanus. Its velocity with respect to the cosmic microwave background is 1817 ± 40 km/s, which corresponds to a Hubble distance of 87.4 ± 6.7 Mly (26.81 ± 2.05 Mpc).[1] In addition, one non-redshift measurement gives a distance of 64 Mly (19.6 Mpc).[2] It was discovered by German-British astronomer William Herschel on 19 December 1799.[3]
