NGC 1512 is a barred spiral galaxy approximately 38 million light-years away from Earth[2] in the constellation Horologium. The galaxy displays a double ring structure, with a (nuclear) ring around the galactic nucleus and an (inner) further out in the main disk. The galaxy hosts an extended UV disc with at least 200 clusters with recent star formation activity.[3] NGC 1512 is a member of the Dorado Group.[4]
