IC 4462 is an elliptical galaxy located in the Boötes constellation.[2] It is located 417 million light-years away from the Solar System and was found by Stephane Javelle on June 22, 1895 the same day he discovered IC 4461, a spiral galaxy.[3] It is gravitationally interacting with IC 4461 and possibly might merge with the latter in the future. Both galaxies form Arp 95, which they are classified under galaxies that have elliptical companions.[4] Sometimes the galaxy is confused with IC 4461.
