Description

ngc 185 is a dwarf galaxy in Cassiopeia. It has many classifications: dwarf Spheroidal, elliptical, and type 2 Seyfert. It is located at a distance of approximately 2 Mly and has a diameter of 10 000 ly. The galaxy has an active nucleus and until recently even star formation. Unlike its twin (ngc 147) which is devoid of any structure near its nucleus, ngc 185 has some dust bands. The annotated image shows the galaxy's globular clusters.I imaged this galaxy 6 years ago, in fact it was the target of my first attempt at guiding.
