NGC 1004 is an elliptical galaxy in the constellation Cetus. [1]
NGC 321 is an elliptical galaxy located in the constellation Cetus. It was discovered on September 27, 1864, by the astronomer Albert Marth. Measurements of its redshift put it at a distance of about 217.4 ± 15.4 megalight-years (66.67 ± 4.73 Mpc), assuming a Hubble constant of H0 = 67.8 km/sec/Mpc.
NGC 50 is an elliptical galaxy in the constellation Cetus with a diameter of 170,000 light-years. It was discovered in 1865 by Gaspare Ferrari. The galaxy is, in comparison to the Milky Way, about 1.5-2 times as large. It is also physically close to NGC 49.
NGC 1052 is an elliptical galaxy in the constellation Cetus. It was discovered on January 10, 1785 by the astronomer William Herschel. It is a member of the eponymous NGC 1052 Group.
NGC 191 is a spiral galaxy located in the constellation Cetus. It was discovered on November 28, 1785, by William Herschel.
NGC 219 is a compact elliptical galaxy located approximately 245 million light-years from the Sun in the constellation Cetus. It was discovered on September 16, 1863 by George Bond.
NGC 284 is an elliptical galaxy in the constellation Cetus. It was discovered on October 2, 1886, by Francis Leavenworth.
NGC 297 is an elliptical galaxy in the constellation Cetus. It was discovered on September 27, 1864 by Albert Marth.
NGC 1022 is a barred spiral galaxy located approximately 68 million light years away in the equatorial constellation of Cetus. It was discovered on September 10, 1785, by William Herschel. NGC 1022 is a member of the Cetus-Aries group of galaxies.
NGC 359 is an elliptical galaxy located approximately 238 million light-years from the Solar System in the constellation Cetus. It was discovered on September 2, 1864, by Albert Marth. It was described by Dreyer as "extremely faint, very small."
NGC 364 is a barred lenticular galaxy in the constellation Cetus. It was discovered on September 2, 1864, by Albert Marth. It was described by Dreyer as "very faint, very small."
NGC 426 is an elliptical galaxy that is also classified as a Seyfert galaxy. It is located in the constellation of Cetus, and it was discovered on December 20, 1786, by William Herschel.
NGC 430 is an elliptical galaxy of type E: located in the constellation Cetus. It was discovered on October 1, 1785 by William Herschel. It was described by Dreyer as "faint, very small, round, very suddenly brighter middle similar to star."
NGC 481 is an elliptical galaxy in the constellation Cetus. It is located approximately 229 million light-years from Earth and was discovered on November 20, 1886 by astronomer Lewis A. Swift.
NGC 519, also occasionally referred to as PGC 5182, is an elliptical galaxy located approximately 242 million light-years from the Solar System in the constellation Cetus. It was discovered on 20 November 1886 by astronomer Lewis Swift.
NGC 779 is a spiral galaxy seen edge-on, located in the constellation Cetus. It is located at a distance of circa 60 million light years from Earth, which, given its apparent dimensions, means that NGC 779 is about 70,000 light years across. It was discovered by William Herschel on September 10, 1785.
NGC 811 is an object in the New General Catalogue. It is an elliptical galaxy located in the constellation Cetus about 700 million light-years from the Milky Way. It was discovered by the American astronomer Francis Leavenworth in 1886. However, it is usually misidentified as a different object, the spiral galaxy PGC 7905.
NGC 543 is an elliptical galaxy in the constellation Cetus. It is estimated to be 239 million light years from the Milky Way and has a diameter of approximately 40,000 ly. NGC 543 was discovered by the German-Danish astronomer Heinrich Louis d'Arrest. It is a member of the galaxy cluster Abell 194.
NGC 548, also occasionally referred to as PGC 5326 or UGC 1010, is an elliptical galaxy in the constellation Cetus. It is located approximately 244 million light-years from the Solar System and was discovered on 2 November 1867 by American astronomer George Mary Searle.
NGC 731 is an elliptical galaxy located in the constellation of Cetus about 172 million light-years away from the Milky Way. It was discovered by William Herschel on January 10, 1785. It has a luminosity of 3.9×1010 L☉.
