The New General Catalogue of Nebulae and Clusters of Stars (abbreviated as NGC) is a catalogue of deep-sky objects compiled by John Louis Emil Dreyer in 1888. The NGC contains 7,840 objects, known as the NGC objects. It is one of the largest comprehensive catalogues, as it includes all types of deep space objects, including galaxies, star clusters, emission nebulae and absorption nebulae.

NGC 5936
NGC 5936 is a barred spiral galaxy in the constellation of Serpens. Its velocity with respect to the cosmic microwave background is 4131 ± 11 km/s, which corresponds to a Hubble distance of 60.93 ± 4.27 Mpc (∼199 million light-years). It was discovered by German-British astronomer William Herschel on 12 April 1784. NGC 5936 is listed as a luminous infrared galaxy (LIRG), and as a field galaxy, i.e. one that does not belong to a larger galaxy group or cluster and hence is gravitationally alone.
