NGC 3294 is a
light years and is receding with a heliocentric radial velocity of 1,586 km/s.[3] The morphological class of NGC 3294 is SA(rs)bc,[7] which means this is a spiral galaxy with no central bar (SA), an incomplete inner ring structure (rs), and moderately wound spiral arms
(bc).
This galaxy has been host to a pair of supernova events:
- SN 1990H was discovered by galactic nucleus.[11] The spectrum and light curve resembled a type II core-collapse supernova similar to SN 1987A.[12]
- SN 1992G was discovered by Shunji Sasaki on 14 February 14 1992, 27″ east and 10.5″ south of the galaxy's nucleus.[13] This was determined to be a type Ia supernova.[14]
