Messier 109 is a barred spiral galaxy exhibiting a weak inner ring structure around the central bar approximately 67.2 ± 23 million light-years away in the northern constellation Ursa Major. M109 can be seen south-east of the star Phecda.
NGC 3949 is an unbarred spiral galaxy in the constellation Ursa Major, approximately 50 million light-years away from the Earth. It was discovered by German-British astronomer William Herschel on 5 February 1788.
NGC 3953 is a barred spiral galaxy located in the constellation Ursa Major. It was discovered by Pierre Méchain on 12 March 1781. The galaxy is known to exhibit an inner ring structure that encircles the bar. NGC 3953 is a member of the M109 Group, a large group of galaxies located within the constellation Ursa Major that may contain over 50 galaxies.
NGC 4051 is an intermediate spiral galaxy in the constellation of Ursa Major. It was discovered on 6 February 1788 by John Herschel.
NGC 4102 is an intermediate barred spiral galaxy located in the northern constellation of Ursa Major. It is visible in a small telescope and has an apparent visual magnitude of 11.2. The galaxy was discovered April 12, 1789 by William Herschel. J. L. E. Dreyer described it as "bright, pretty small, round, brighter middle and bright nucleus". This galaxy is located at a distance of 60 million light years and is receding with a heliocentric radial velocity of 837 km/s. It is a member of the Ursa Major group of galaxies.
NGC 3718, also called Arp 214, is a galaxy located approximately 52 million light years from Earth in the constellation Ursa Major. It is either a lenticular or spiral galaxy.
NGC 4145 is a barred spiral galaxy located in the Ursa Major galaxy cluster, 68 million light years from the Earth. The galaxy has little star formation, except on its outer edges. Due to the loss of energy that occurs without star formation, some astronomers predict that the galaxy will degenerate into a lenticular galaxy in the near future. However, the galaxy's interaction with NGC 4151 may "maintain [its] star formation".
NGC 480 is a spiral galaxy located about 546 million light-years away from Earth in the constellation Cetus. NGC 480 was discovered by American astronomer Francis Leavenworth In 1886.
NGC 7083 is an unbarred spiral galaxy located about 134 million light-years away in the constellation of Indus. It is also classified as a flocculent spiral galaxy. NGC 7083 was discovered by astronomer James Dunlop on August 28, 1826.
NGC 521, also occasionally referred to as PGC 5190 or UGC 962, is a barred spiral galaxy located approximately 224 million light-years from the Solar System in the constellation Cetus. It was discovered on 8 October 1785 by astronomer William Herschel.
NGC 3972 is a spiral galaxy located in the northern constellation of Ursa Major. It was discovered by William Herschel on April 14, 1789. This galaxy is located 66 million light years away and is receding with a heliocentric radial velocity of 846 km/s. It is a member of the NGC 3992 Group of galaxies.
NGC 3928, also known as the Miniature Spiral, is a lenticular galaxy, sometimes classified as a dwarf spiral galaxy, in the constellation Ursa Major. It was discovered by William Herschel on March 9, 1788.
NGC 2603 is a small compact spiral galaxy located 787 million light-years away in the constellation of Ursa Major from the Solar System. It was discovered by George Johnstone Stoney, an Irish astronomer, on February 9th, 1850. NGC 2603 has an estimated diameter of 81,000 light-years. It contains a narrow-line active galactic nucleus. The Hyperleda database associates NGC 2603 and NGC 2606 as one single galaxy. NASA/IPAC database on the other hand, classifies NGC 2603 as galaxy PGC 3133653.
NGC 2606 is a spiral galaxy located around 646 million light-years away in the constellation Ursa Major. NGC 2606 was discovered on February 16th, 1831 by the astronomer John Herschel, and it has a diameter around 232,000 light-years. NGC 2606 is known to have some star-formation, and it is known to have an active galactic nucleus, specifically a Type II Seyfert galaxy.
NGC 5278 is a spiral galaxy in the constellation Ursa Major. It was discovered by German-British astronomer William Herschel in 1789.
NGC 5279 is a spiral galaxy in the constellation Ursa Major. It was discovered by German-British astronomer William Herschel in 1789. NGC 5279 is in gravitational interaction with the galaxy NGC 5278. This pair of galaxies appears in Halton Arp's Atlas of Peculiar Galaxies under the designation Arp 239. The luminosity class of NGC 5279 is I1. NGC 5279 is a galaxy whose core shines in the ultraviolet region. It is listed in the Markarian catalog under the designation Mrk 271.
NGC 3978 is a large intermediate spiral galaxy with a bar located in the constellation of Ursa Major. It is located 460 million light-years away from the Solar System and was discovered by William Herschel on March 19, 1790, but also observed by John Herschel on April 14, 1831.
NGC 3950 is an elliptical galaxy of type E, in Ursa Major. Its redshift is 0.074602, meaning NGC 3950 is 1.03 billion light-years or 316 Mpc from Earth, which is within the Hubble distance values. This high redshift makes NGC 3950 one of the furthest New General Catalogue objects.
NGC 2692 is a spiral galaxy located around 188 million light-years away in the constellation Ursa Major. It was discovered on March 17, 1790, by astronomer William Herschel, and it has a diameter around 46,000 light-years. NGC 2692 is not known to have lots of star-formation, and it is not known to have an active galactic nucleus.
