NGC 1022 is a barred spiral galaxy located approximately 68[1] million light years away in the equatorial constellation of Cetus. It was discovered on September 10, 1785, by William Herschel. NGC 1022 is a member of the Cetus-Aries group of galaxies.[3]

This galaxy has a morphological classification SBa,[1] indicating a central bar and tightly wound spiral arms. The elliptical outline of the galaxy has an isophotal axis ratio of 0.78[1] with an angular size of 2.4 by 2.0 and a position angle of 115°.[2] The galactic plane is inclined at an angle of 24° to the line of sight from the Earth. The central bar is boxy in shape with narrow spurs that are offset from the main axis.[4]

NGC 1022 is forming new stars at an estimated rate of 1.1 solar masses per year. Infrared observations of the nucleus suggests a high rate of star formation activity.[5] The circumnuclear region is home to three giant H II regions with one at the nucleus, a second to the northeast, and the third slightly to the northwest.[3] The galaxy was observed as part of a Hubble study of black holes.[6]
