IC 1192 is an edge-on[1] barred spiral galaxy[2] located in Hercules.[3][4] It is located 543 million light-years from the Solar System and has a diameter of approximately 90,000 light-years.[1] IC 1192 was discovered by Stephane Javelle on August 13, 1892.[5] It is a member of the Hercules Cluster.[6][7]

The luminosity class of IC 1192 is II[1] and it has an active galaxy nucleus. It is specifically described as a LINER galaxy according to SIMBAD, meaning its nucleus presents an emission spectrum characterized by broad lines of weak ionized atoms.[8]
