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 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 thousand 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 in the Ursa Major constellation. It lies 648 million light-years away from our home galaxy, the Milky Way. The galaxy was first discovered by John Herschel, a British astronomer on 16th February 1831. According to SIMBAD database, it is classified as a LINER galaxy and a Seyfert type 2 galaxy by Hyperleda.
NGC 5278 is a spiral galaxy in the constellation Ursa Major. It was discovered by German-British astronomer William Herschel in 1789. NGC 5278 is in gravitational interaction with the galaxy NGC 5279. This pair of galaxies appears in the Halton Arp's Atlas of Peculiar Galaxies under the symbol Arp 239. The luminosity class of NGC 5278 is II. The nucleus of this galaxy presents a burst of star formation and it is an active Seyfert 2 type galaxy. In addition, NGC 5278 is possibly a LINER galaxy, a galaxy whose nucleus presents an emission spectrum characterized by broad lines of weakly ionized atoms. NGC 5278 is also a galaxy whose core shines in the ultraviolet spectrum. It is listed in the Markarian catalog under the reference Mrk 271.
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.
