NGC 7003 is a spiral galaxy around 220 million light-years from Earth in the constellation Delphinus. [2] [1] NGC 7003 has an estimated diameter of 80,800 light-years. [1] The galaxy was discovered by German astronomer Heinrich Louis d'Arrest on August 26, 1864. [3] There also has been at least one supernova observed in NGC 7003. [4]
On May 12, 2011, a Type II supernova designated as SN 2011dk was discovered in NGC 7003. [5] [6]
