NGC 514 is a low-luminosity,[1] intermediate spiral galaxy in the equatorial constellation of Pisces, located at a distance of approximately 83[2] million light-years from the Milky Way. It was discovered on 16 October 1784 by astronomer William Herschel.[3] The general form of the galaxy is specified by its morphological classification of SAB(rs)c,[4] which indicates it has a weak bar system at the core (SAB), an incomplete ring formation around the bar (rs), and somewhat loosely-wound spiral arms (c). This galaxy has an H II nucleus[5] with an extended region that displays weak emission lines in the optical range, but not in the near infrared.[4] The suspected supermassive black hole at the core has an estimated mass of Template:Val.[1]

In October 2020 a type Ia supernova, SN 2020uxz, was detected in NGC 514.[6][7]
