NGC 3200 is a large spiral galaxy located in the constellation Hydra. Its velocity relative to the cosmic microwave background is 3,877 ± 25 km/s, which corresponds to a Hubble distance of 57.2 ± 4.0 Mpc (~187 million ly). NGC 3200 was discovered by American astronomer Edward Singleton Holden in 1882. [1]
NGC 2937 is an elliptical galaxy located in the constellation Hydra. Its velocity relative to the cosmic microwave background is 105.1 ± 7.4 km/s, which corresponds to a Hubble distance of 105.1 ± 7.4 Mpc (∼343 million ly). [1] NGC 2937 was discovered by German astronomer Albert Marth in 1864.
NGC 4993 (also catalogued as NGC 4994 in the New General Catalogue) is a lenticular galaxy [5] located about 140 million light-years away [2] in the constellation Hydra. [6] It was discovered on 26 March 1789 [ 7 ] by William Herschel [ 6 ] [ 7 ] and is a member of the NGC 4993 Group.
NGC 2848 is an intermediate spiral galaxy in the constellation of Hydra. Its velocity with respect to the cosmic microwave background is 2,361 ± 23 km/s, which corresponds to a Hubble distance of 34.82 ± 2.46 Mpc (∼114 million light-years). [1] It was discovered by German-British astronomer William Herschel on 31 December 1785.
NGC 3936 is a barred spiral galaxy in the constellation of Hydra. Its velocity with respect to the cosmic microwave background is 2,357 ± 24 km/s, which corresponds to a Hubble distance of 34.76 ± 2.46 Mpc (∼113 million light-years). [1] It was discovered by British astronomer John Herschel on 24 March 1835. [2]
NGC 5135 is a barred spiral galaxy located in the constellation Hydra. It is located at a distance of about 200 million light years from Earth. It was discovered by John Herschel on May 8, 1834. [ 2 ]
NGC 2936, also known as the Penguin Galaxy or the Porpoise Galaxy, is an interacting spiral galaxy located at a distance of 326 million light years, [3] in the constellation Hydra. NGC 2936 is interacting with elliptical galaxy NGC 2937, located just beneath it. They were both discovered by Albert Marth on Mar 3, 1864. [4]
NGC 3305 is an elliptical galaxy located about 190 million light-years away [2] in the constellation Hydra. [3] The galaxy was discovered by astronomer John Herschel on March 24, 1835. [ 4 ] [ 5 ] NGC 3305 is a member of the Hydra Cluster .
