}}NGC 1407 is an elliptical galaxy in Eridanus. It is at a distance of 75 million light years from Earth. It is the brightest galaxy in the NGC 1407 Group, part of the Eridanus Group, with NGC 1407 being its brightest member.[2] NGC 1400, the second brightest of the group lies 11.8 arcmin away. NGC 1407 is X-ray luminous, with high hot gas Fe abundance,[3] and with evidence of recurrent radio outbursts.[4] In the central area of the galaxy are present old stars, with mean age 12.0 ± 1.1 Gyrs, that are metal rich and with supersolar abundances of α-elements. Observations indicate that NGC 1407 hasn't undergone recently strong star formation activity.[5] The galaxy hosts a supermassive black hole with mass 1.12 ±0.42 billion solar masses, based on velocity dispersion.[6]

The galaxy was discovered by 6 October 1785 by William Herschel.
