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 114 is a barred lenticular galaxy located in the constellation Cetus. It was discovered by American astronomer Truman Henry Safford on September 23, 1867. The galaxy lies approximately 195 million light-years from Earth, and is about 55,000 light-years in diameter, nearly half the size of the Milky Way.
NGC 235 is a lenticular galaxy in the constellation of Cetus. Its companion, PGC 2570, appears in the line of sight of NGC 235, but has no relation with NGC 235. This pair was first discovered by Francis Leavenworth in 1886. Dreyer, the compiler of the catalogue, described the galaxy as "extremely faint, small, round, brighter middle and nucleus".
NGC 203 is a lenticular galaxy located approximately 233 million light-years from the Solar System in the constellation Pisces. It was discovered on December 19, 1873 by Ralph Copeland.
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 466 is a lenticular galaxy located about 227 million light-years away from Earth in the constellation Tucana. NGC 466 was discovered by astronomer John Herschel on October 3, 1836.
NGC 7035 and NGC 7035A are a pair of interacting lenticular galaxies located around 400 to 430 million light-years away in the constellation of Capricornus. The main galaxy, NGC 7035 was discovered by astronomer Frank Muller in 1886.
NGC 4623 is an edge-on lenticular or elliptical galaxy located about 54 million light-years away in the constellation of Virgo. NGC 4623 is classified as an E7, a rare type of "late" elliptical that represents the first stage of transition into a lenticular galaxy. NGC 4623 was discovered by astronomer William Herschel on April 13, 1784. NGC 4623 is a member of the Virgo Cluster.
NGC 4873 is a lenticular galaxy located about 270 million light-years away in the constellation of Coma Berenices. NGC 4873 was discovered by astronomer Heinrich d'Arrest on May 10, 1863. The galaxy is a member of the Coma Cluster.
NGC 4754 is a barred lenticular galaxy located about 53 million light-years away in the constellation of Virgo. NGC 4754 was discovered by astronomer William Herschel on March 15, 1784. It forms a non-interacting pair with the edge-on lenticular galaxy NGC 4762. NGC 4754 is a member of the Virgo Cluster.
NGC 502, also occasionally referred to as PGC 5034 or UGC 922, is a lenticular galaxy in the constellation Pisces. It is located approximately 113 million light-years from the Solar System and was discovered on 25 September 1862 by German astronomer Heinrich Louis d'Arrest. When the Morphological Catalogue of Galaxies was published between 1962 and 1974, the identifications of NGC 502 and NGC 505 were reversed. In reality, NGC 502 is equal to MGC +01-04-041 and not MCG +01-04-043 as noted in the catalogue.
NGC 504, also occasionally referred to as PGC 5084 or UGC 935, is a lenticular galaxy located approximately 189 million light-years from the Solar System in the constellation Pisces. It was discovered on 22 November 1827 by astronomer John Herschel. The object was listed twice in the General Catalogue, precursor of the New General Catalogue, as both GC 291 and GC 292.
NGC 515, also occasionally referred to as PGC 5201 or UGC 956, is a lenticular galaxy located approximately 228 million light-years from the Solar System in the constellation Pisces. It was discovered on 13 September 1784 by astronomer William Herschel.
NGC 517, also occasionally referred to as PGC 5214 or UGC 960, is a lenticular galaxy located approximately 188 million light-years from the Solar System in the constellation Pisces. It was discovered on 13 September 1784 by astronomer William Herschel.
NGC 3315 is a lenticular galaxy located about 185 million light-years away in the constellation Hydra. It was discovered by astronomer Edward Austin on March 24, 1870. It is a member of the Hydra Cluster.
NGC 527, also occasionally referred to as PGC 5128 or PGC 5141, is a lenticular galaxy located approximately 259 million light-years from the Solar System in the constellation Sculptor. It was discovered on 1 September 1834 by astronomer John Herschel.
NGC 3805 is a lenticular galaxy located about 330 million light-years away in the constellation Leo. The galaxy was discovered by astronomer William Herschel on April 25, 1785. NGC 3805 is a member of the Leo Cluster.
NGC 6061 is a lenticular galaxy with radio activity located about 490 million light-years away in the constellation Hercules. The galaxy is classified as a head-tail radio galaxy and was discovered by astronomer Lewis Swift on June 8, 1886. NGC 6061 is a member of the Hercules Cluster.
NGC 4296 is a barred lenticular galaxy located about 200 million light-years away in the constellation Virgo. It was discovered by astronomer William Herschel on April 13, 1784. It forms a pair with NGC 4297, and both galaxies are listed as CGCG 042-041, and KPG 331.
NGC 4297 is a lenticular galaxy located about 200 million light-years away in the constellation Virgo. It was discovered by astronomer William Herschel on April 13, 1784. It forms an interacting pair with NGC 4296.
NGC 839 is a lenticular galaxy located in the constellation Cetus. It was discovered November 28, 1785 in a sky survey by Wilhelm Herschel. It is one of the galaxies that are part of the quadruplet family HGC 16, along with the unbarred lenticular galaxy NGC 838.
