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 997 is an interacting galaxy in the constellation of Cetus. The galaxy was discovered by Albert Marth on 10 November 1863. It has a regularly rotating central molecular gas disk, containing a black hole of between 4 x 107 and 1.8 x 109 solar masses. Its speed relative to the cosmological background is 6,270 ± 45 km/s, corresponding to a Hubble distance of 92.5 ± 6.5 Mpc (~302 million ly).
NGC 4999 is a barred spiral galaxy located in the constellation Virgo, first discovered February 24, 1786 by astronomer William Herschel. The galaxy is noted as a particularly bright ultraviolet light source – it is believed that its notable bar structure suppresses star formation, indicating this ultraviolet light may possibly be due to a quasi-stellar object.
NGC 855 is a star-forming dwarf elliptical galaxy located in the Triangulum constellation. The discovery and a first description was realized by William Herschel on 26th October 1786 and the findings made public through his Catalogue of Nebulae and Clusters of Stars, published the same year.
NGC 6365 is a pair of spiral galaxies in the constellation Draco. It consists of two galaxies, PGC 60174 to the south, and PGC 60171 to the north. These two galaxies are also designated respectively by the NASA/IPAC database as NGC 6365A and NGC 6365B. This pair of galaxies was discovered by German astronomer Lewis Swift in 1884.
NGC 5885 is an intermediate barred spiral galaxy located in the constellation Libra. Its speed relative to the cosmic microwave background is 2,185 ± 13 km/s, which corresponds to a Hubble distance of 32.3 ± 2.3 Mpc. NGC 5885 was discovered by German-British astronomer William Herschel in 1784.
NGC 5461 is an emission nebula located in Messier 101 towards the constellation Ursa Major.
