NGC 7080 is a barred spiral galaxy[2] located about 204.5 million light-years away[3] in the constellation of Vulpecula.[4] It has an estimated diameter of about 100,000 light-years which would make it similar in size to the Milky Way.[3] NGC 7080 was discovered by astronomer Albert Marth on September 6, 1863.[5]
According to Harold Corwin, NGC 7054 is a duplicate observation of NGC 7080.[6]
One supernova has been observed in NGC 7080: SN 1998ey (type Ic-pec, mag.16.8) was discovered by Ron Arbour on 5 December 1998.[7][8][9]
