NGC 1560, also known as IC 2062, is am
11th-magnitude spiral galaxy, in the constellation of
Camelopardalis. Its distance is unknown because it is too near
for the Universal expansion to affect its motion relative to
Earth. It has a negative radial velocity of -35 km/second.
However, based on its redshift-independent distance estimates,
it may range from 5 to 15 million light years. Currently, the
most accurate estimage is approximately 10 to 12 million light
years. At this distance, it is relatively close to Earth, but
not part of the Local Group.
