NGC 336 is a spiral galaxy in the constellation Cetus. It was discovered on October 31, 1885 by Francis Leavenworth. It was described by Dreyer as "very faint, small, round, suddenly brighter middle." It is also known as PGC 3470. Despite this, sometimes it is mistakenly identified as PGC 3526. [3]
NGC 2 is an intermediate spiral galaxy with the morphological type of Sab, located in the constellation of Pegasus. NGC 2 was discovered by Lawrence Parsons, 4th Earl of Rosse on 20 August 1873."
NGC 65 is a lenticular galaxy in the constellation Cetus. Its apparent magnitude is 13.4. It was first discovered in 1886, and is also known as PGC 1229.
NGC 77 is a lenticular galaxy located 780 million light-years away in the constellation of Cetus. It was discovered by Frank Muller in 1886. Its apparent magnitude is 14.8, and it is around 360,000 light-years across.
NGC 84 is a star in the Andromeda constellation. It was recorded on November 14, 1884 by Guillaume Bigourdan. It is situated close to the Celestial equator, making it at least partly visible in the sky, from both hemispheres in certain times of the year. It is usually mistaken with PGC 1384.
NGC 125 is a lenticular galaxy located in the constellation Pisces. It is designated as subclass Sa Ring in the galaxy morphological classification scheme. It lies approximately 235 million light-years away.
NGC 131 is a spiral galaxy that was discovered on September 25, 1834, by John Herschel. This galaxy belongs in the NGC 134 group of galaxies: NGC 115, NGC 148, NGC 150, PGC 2000, IC 1555, and PGC 2044.
NGC 150 is a barred spiral galaxy in the constellation Sculptor. It is about 70 million light years away from the Solar System, and it has a diameter of about 55,000 light years. It was discovered on 20 November 1886, by Lewis A. Swift.
NGC 166 is a spiral galaxy located around 2.6 million light-years away in the constellation Cetus, with an apparent magnitude of 15.18. It was discovered by Francis Preserved Leavenworth in 1886.
NGC 218, also known as UGC 480, is a spiral galaxy located approximately 500 million light-years from the Sun in the constellation Andromeda. It was discovered on October 17, 1876 by Édouard Stephan, and is interacting with the galaxy PGC 2726.
NGC 317 is a pair of interacting galaxies, consisting of a lenticular galaxy NGC 317A and a spiral galaxy NGC 317B, in the constellation Andromeda. It was discovered on October 1, 1885 by Lewis Swift.
NGC 331 is a barred spiral galaxy in the constellation Cetus. It was discovered in 1886 by Francis Leavenworth. It was described by Dreyer as "extremely faint, very small, round, a little brighter middle, 12th magnitude star 3 arcmin northeast." There are two candidates as to which object is NGC 331: PGC 2759 or PGC 3406, with the former being a much more likely candidate than the latter.
NGC 333 is a lenticular galaxy located approximately 755 million light years away in the constellation Cetus. It was discovered in 1877 by Wilhelm Tempel. It is recorded as NGC 333 in the New General Catalogue. It has a companion galaxy, named PGC 3073571, which is presumed to be a physical pair with NGC 333.
NGC 414 is a pair of lenticular galaxies (PGC 4254 and PGC 93079) of types S0 and E/S0, respectively, located in the constellation Pisces. It was discovered on October 22, 1867 by Herman Schultz. It was described by Dreyer as "very faint, small, irregularly round, much brighter middle, II 220 to the northwest.", with II 220 being NGC 410.
NGC 5011 is an elliptical galaxy in the constellation of Centaurus. It was discovered on 3 June 1834 by John Herschel. It was described as "pretty bright, considerably small, round, among 4 stars" by John Louis Emil Dreyer, the compiler of the New General Catalogue.
NGC 1573 is an elliptical galaxy in the constellation of Camelopardalis. It was discovered on 1 August 1883 by Wilhelm Tempel. It was described as "very faint, small" by John Louis Emil Dreyer, the compiler of the New General Catalogue. It is located about 190 million light-years away.
NGC 486, also occasionally referred to as LEDA 1281966 or GC 275, is a spiral galaxy in the constellation Pisces. NGC 486 was discovered on December 6, 1850 by Irish engineer Bindon Blood Stoney.
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 5529 is an edge-on intermediate spiral galaxy in the constellation Boötes. It is located approximately 144 million light-years away and was discovered by William Herschel on May 1, 1785.
NGC 811 is an object in the New General Catalogue. It is an elliptical galaxy located in the constellation Cetus about 700 million light-years from the Milky Way. It was discovered by the American astronomer Francis Leavenworth in 1886. However, it is usually misidentified as a different object, the spiral galaxy PGC 7905.
NGC 734 is a lenticular galaxy with a central bar in the constellation Cetus, which is about 538 million light years from the Milky Way. It was discovered on November 9, 1885, by the American astronomer Francis Preserved Leavenworth.
