NGC 3602 is a barred spiral galaxy [3] in the constellation Leo. It was discovered on March 4, 1865 by the astronomer Albert Marth. [4]
NGC 1723 is a barred spiral galaxy in the constellation Eridanus. The galaxy is listed in the New General Catalogue. It was discovered on September 13, 1863, by the astronomer Albert Marth.
NGC 1725 is a lenticular galaxy in the constellation Eridanus. The galaxy is listed in the New General Catalogue. It was discovered on November 10, 1885 by the astronomer Edward Emerson Barnard.
NGC 1728 is a spiral galaxy in the constellation Eridanus. The galaxy is listed in the New General Catalogue. It was discovered on November 10, 1885 by the astronomer Edward Emerson Barnard.
NGC 51 is a lenticular galaxy in the constellation Andromeda. It has a diameter of 90,000 light-years. The galaxy was discovered on September 7, 1885 by Lewis Swift, who described it as "Pretty faint, pretty small, round, brighter middle."
NGC 66 is a barred spiral galaxy discovered by Frank Muller in 1886, and is located in the Cetus constellation.
NGC 526 is a pair of interacting lenticular galaxies in the constellation of Sculptor. Both the constituents are classified as S0 lenticular galaxies. This pair was first discovered by John Herschel on September 1, 1834. Dreyer, the compiler of the catalogue described the galaxy as "faint, small, a little extended, the preceding of 2", the other object being NGC 527.
NGC 6221 is a barred spiral galaxy located in the constellation Ara. In de Vaucouleurs' galaxy morphological classification scheme, it is classified as SB(s)bc and was discovered by British astronomer John Herschel on 3 May 1835. NGC 6221 is located at about 69 million light years from Earth.
NGC 7302 is a lenticular galaxy located around 124 million light-years away from Earth in the constellation of Aquarius. NGC 7302 was discovered by British astronomer William Herschel on October 3, 1785 and was rediscovered by American astronomer Lewis Swift on August 8, 1896 and was listed in the IC catalogue as IC 5228. It is also part of a group of interacting galaxies.
NGC 7068 is a spiral galaxy located about 215 million light-years away in the constellation of Pegasus. NGC 7068 was discovered by astronomer Albert Marth on November 7, 1863.
NGC 4500 is a barred spiral galaxy in the constellation Ursa Major. The galaxy was discovered on April 17, 1789 by William Herschel. It is a blue compact galaxy.
NGC 468 is a spiral galaxy in the constellation Pisces. With its distance being approximately 209 million light-years from Earth, it was discovered by John Frederick William Herschel in 1827.
NGC 4608 is a barred lenticular galaxy located in the constellation of Virgo. The galaxy was discovered by astronomer William Herschel on March 15, 1784. At about 56 million light-years away, it is a member of the Virgo Cluster.
NGC 3312 is a large and highly inclined spiral galaxy located about 194 million light-years away in the constellation Hydra. The galaxy was discovered by astronomer John Herschel on March 26, 1835. It was later rediscovered by astronomer Guillaume Bigourdan on February 26, 1887. NGC 3312 was later listed and equated with IC 629 because the two objects share essentially the same celestial coordinates. NGC 3312 is the largest spiral galaxy in the Hydra Cluster and is also classified as a LINER galaxy.
NGC 5619 is an intermediate spiral galaxy in the constellation Virgo. The galaxy was found on April 10, 1828 by the British astronomer John Herschel. It is located about 390 million light-years away from the Sun.
NGC 3006 is an edge-on spiral galaxy in the constellation Ursa Major. It has an apparent magnitude of 15. It was discovered by the astronomer Bindon Stoney on January 25, 1851.
NGC 635 is a spiral galaxy located in the constellation of the Cetus about 626 million light years from the Milky Way. NGC 635 discovered by the American astronomer Francis Leavenworth in 1885. It is also known as MCG-04-05-002 or PGC 6062, although in SIMBAD its New General Catalogue designation is not recognized.
NGC 600 is an emission-line galaxy in the constellation Cetus. It was discovered by William Herschel on 10 September 1785. The galaxy has a diameter of 70,000 light-years. It is also approximately 90 million light-years from the Milky Way.
NGC 4589 is an elliptical galaxy located in the Draco constellation. It is at a distance of about 108 million light-years away from the Earth. It is known by its designations PGC 42139 or UGC 7797.
NGC 5533 is an unbarred spiral galaxy in the constellation Boötes. It was discovered by the astronomer William Herschel on May 1, 1785. It has a regular structure, with one tightly wound spiral; its disk is inclined about 53 degrees towards the line of sight.
NGC 3598 is a lenticular galaxy located in the constellation Leo. It was discovered by the astronomer Albert Marth on March 4, 1865.
