IC 3686 is a Sc type spiral galaxy[1] located 920 million light-years[2] from the Solar System in the constellation of Virgo.[3][4] It was discovered by American astronomer Royal Harwood Frost on May 10, 1904.[5] Frost described it as magnitude 14.3 and RA 12 42 at 36.0, Dec +11 44 22.[5] IC 3686 has an estimated diameter of 270,000 light-years making it larger compared to the Milky Way.[2] and is classified as LINER-type active galactic nucleus galaxy according to SIMBAD.[6] Despite listed in the Virgo Cluster catalogue as VCC 1927, it is not a member of the Virgo Cluster but a background galaxy.[7]
