'''NGC{{nbsp}}4419''' is a [[barred spiral galaxy]] in the [[constellation]] of [[Coma Berenices]]. It was discovered by German-British astronomer [[William Herschel]] on 8 April 1784.{{r|selig}}

NGC{{nbsp}}4419 is a [[Low-ionization nuclear emission-line region|LINER]] galaxy, i.e. a galaxy whose nucleus has an emission spectrum characterized by broad lines of weakly ionized atoms.{{r|SIMBAD}}

==Distance== NGC 4419 has a velocity with respect to the [[cosmic microwave background]] of {{val|64|23|u=km/s|fmt=commas}}, which is too small to be used to estimate its distance.{{r|ned}} Instead, 22 ''non-redshift'' measurements are used to give a mean distance of {{convert|16.095 ± 0.771|Mpc|Mly|abbr=on|lk=on|order=flip}}.{{r|ned-distance}}

==Supernovae== Two [[supernova]]e have been observed in NGC 4419: * '''SN{{nbsp}}1984A''' ([[type Ia supernova|Type{{nbsp}}Ia]], mag. 16) was discovered by Givi N. Kimeridze on 4 January 1984, and independently by [[Leonida Rosino]] on 7 January 1984.{{r|IAUC3907|IAUC3908|TNS-1984A}} * '''SN{{nbsp}}2012cc''' ([[Type II supernova|Type{{nbsp}}II]], mag. 18.2) was discovered by the [[Lick Observatory]] Supernova Search (LOSS) on 29 April 2012.{{r|CBET3105|TNS-2012cc}}
