NGC 2 is a spiral galaxy in the constellation Pegasus, discovered by Lawrence Parsons, 4th Earl of Rosse on 20 August 1873, and was described as "very faint, small, south of NGC 1." It lies slightly to the south of NGC 1. It is a faint spiral galaxy of apparent magnitude 14.2.
NGC 2541 is an unbarred spiral galaxy located about 40 million light-years away. It is in the NGC 2841 group of galaxies with NGC 2500, NGC 2537, and NGC 2552.
NGC 3877 is a type Sc spiral galaxy that was discovered by William Herschel on February 5, 1788. It is located below the magnitude 3.7 star Chi Ursae Majoris in Ursa Major.
NGC 6744 is an intermediate spiral galaxy about 30 million light-years away in the constellation Pavo (Peacock). It is considered as a Milky Way mimic in the immediate vicinity, displaying flocculent (fluffy) arms and an elongated core. It also has at least one distorted companion galaxy superficially similar to one of the Magellanic Clouds. It was discovered from Parramatta in Australia by Scottish astronomer James Dunlop on 30 June 1826.
The Atlas of Peculiar Galaxies is a catalog of peculiar galaxies produced by Halton Arp in 1966. A total of 338 galaxies are presented in the atlas, which was originally published in 1966 by the California Institute of Technology. The primary goal of the catalog was to present photographs of examples of the different kinds of peculiar structures found among galaxies.
NGC 5090 and NGC 5091 are a set of galaxies approximately 160 million light-years away in the constellation Centaurus. They are in the process of colliding and merging with some evidence of tidal disruption of NGC 5091.
NGC 4976 is a peculiar elliptical galaxy in the constellation Centaurus. It was detected with a 5" telescope working at 20x magnification by comet hunter Jack Bennett.
NGC 5101 is a lenticular galaxy in the constellation Hydra. It is separated in the sky from the spiral galaxy NGC 5078 by about 0.5 degrees, and both are believed to be at the same distance from the Earth. This would mean they are approximately 800,000 light-years apart. Both galaxies are believed to be about the size of the Milky Way.
NGC 5112 is a barred spiral galaxy in the constellation Canes Venatici. This galaxy is in close physical proximity to the edge-on dwarf spiral NGC 5107.
NGC 5334 is a face-on spiral galaxy in the constellation Virgo. It is a member of the Virgo III Groups, a series of galaxies and galaxy clusters strung out to the east of the Virgo Supercluster of galaxies.
NGC 1260 is a spiral or lenticular galaxy in the constellation Perseus. It was discovered by astronomer Guillaume Bigourdan on 19 October 1884. NGC 1260 is a member of the Perseus Cluster and forms a tight pair with the galaxy PGC 12230. In 2006, it was home to the second brightest supernova in the observable universe, supernova SN 2006gy.
NGC 145, also known as Arp 19, is a barred spiral galaxy in Cetus, notable for its three spiral arms.
NGC 7 is a barred spiral galaxy located in the Sculptor constellation. It was discovered by English astronomer John Herschel in 1834, who was using an 18.7 inch reflector telescope at the time. Astronomer Steve Gottlieb described the galaxy as faint, albeit large, and edge-on from the perspective of the Milky Way; he also noted how the galaxy could only be observed clearly with peripheral vision, not by looking directly at it.
NGC 14 is an irregular galaxy in the Pegasus constellation. It was included in Halton Arp's Atlas of Peculiar Galaxies, under the section "Galaxies with the appearance of fission," since the irregular appearance of this galaxy causes it to look like it is coming apart. It was discovered on September the 18th 1786 by William Herschel.
NGC 22 is a spiral galaxy located in the Pegasus constellation. It was discovered in 1883 by Édouard Stephan.
NGC 36 is a barred spiral galaxy in the constellation Pisces. It is located about 221 million light-years away. It was discovered in October 25, 1785 by the astronomer William Herschel.
NGC 7332 is an edge-on peculiar lenticular galaxy located about 67 million light-years away in the constellation Pegasus. It possesses a -shaped bulge, associated with stellar bar. It was discovered on September 19, 1784 by the astronomer William Herschel.
NGC 61 is a pair of lenticular galaxies, NGC 61-A and NGC 61-B in the constellation Cetus. Both were discovered on September 10, 1785 by William Herschel.
NGC 67 is an elliptical galaxy located in the constellation Andromeda that was discovered on October 7, 1855, by R. J. Mitchell, who described it as "extremely faint, very small, round". The galaxy belongs to the NGC 68 group, which also contains the galaxies NGC 68, NGC 69, NGC 70, NGC 71, NGC 72, and possibly NGC 74.
NGC 4871 is a lenticular galaxy located about 310 million light-years away in the constellation of Coma Berenices. NGC 4871 was discovered by astronomer Heinrich d'Arrest on May 10, 1863. It is a member of the Coma Cluster.
