NGC 2805 (Holm 124)

Introduction | Map | My Best Own Photos | My Own Observations | References || Appendix: My Own Photos

On this page I collect my observations of the spiral galaxy NGC 2805 and the members of the the interactive galaxy quartet Holm 124 in the constellation Ursa Major.

Introduction

The barred spiral galaxy NGC 2805 in the constellation Ursa Major forms together with NGC 2814, NGC 2820, and IC 2458 the interactive galaxy quartet Holm 124. I was not able yet to determine the names of all the galaxies that are included in the photos.
