M60-UCD1 is an extremely dense ultracompact dwarf galaxy 54 million light years form Earth. It is close to NGC 4649. Half of its mass is in the central sphere 160 light years in diameter.[1] Its mass is 200 million solar masses. Metalicity is similar to the sun.[2] There is a bright X-ray source in the centre, possibly a black hole.[3]
