The galaxy was first mentioned by William Herschel on March 17, 1787; it was one of the two Seyfert galaxies described in the paper [4] which defined the term. It is one of the nearest galaxies to Earth to contain an actively growing supermassive black hole;[5] it was speculated that the nucleus may host a binary black hole, with about 40 million and about 10 million solar masses respectively, orbiting with a 15.8-year period.[6] This is, however, still a matter of active debate. Some astronomers nickname it the "Eye of Sauron" from its appearance.[7] X-ray sourceX-ray emission from NGC 4151 was apparently first detected on December 24, 1970, with the X-ray observatory satellite Uhuru,[8] although the observation spanned an error-box of 0.56 square degrees and there is some controversy as to whether UHURU might not have detected the BL Lac object 1E 1207.9 +3945, which is inside their error box - the later HEAO 1 detected an X-ray source of NGC 4151 at 1H 1210+393,[9] coincident with the optical position of the nucleus and outside the error box of Uhuru.[8] To explain the X-ray emission two different possibilities have been proposed:[10]
