  • Galaxy Zoo
    Galaxy Zoo is a crowdsourced astronomy project which invites people to assist in the morphological classification of large numbers of galaxies.
  • EGSY8p7
    EGSY8p7 (EGSY-2008532660) is a distant galaxy, with a spectroscopic redshift of z = 8.
  • Hubble sequence
    The Hubble sequence is a morphological classification scheme for galaxies invented by Edwin Hubble in 1926.
  • EGS-zs8-1
    EGS-zs8-1 is a high-redshift Lyman-break galaxy found at the northern constellation of Boötes.
  • GN-z11
    GN-z11 is a high-redshift galaxy found in the constellation Ursa Major, and is currently the oldest and most distant known galaxy in the observable universe.
  • RD1
    RD1 or 0140+326 RD1 is a distant galaxy, it once held the title of most distant galaxy known.
  • NGC 125
    NGC 125 (also known as PGC 1772) is a lenticular galaxy located in the constellation Pisces.
  • LAE J095950.99+021219.1
    LAE J095950.99+021219.
  • Green bean galaxy
    Green bean galaxies (GBGs) are very rare astronomical objects that are thought to be quasar ionization echos.
  • SXDF-NB1006-2
    SXDF-NB1006-2 is a distant galaxy located in the Cetus constellation, with a spectroscopic redshift of z = 7.
  • WISE J224607.57-052635.0
    WISE J224607.57-052635.
  • SSA22−HCM1
    SSA22-HCM1 is an extremely luminous galaxy 12.
  • Dragonfly 44
    Dragonfly 44 is an ultra diffuse galaxy in the Coma Cluster.
  • A1689-zD1
    A1689-zD1 was a candidate for the most distant and therefore earliest observed galaxy discovered as of February 2008, based on a photometric redshift.
  • KKR 25
    KKR 25 is a galaxy 6.
  • KKR 03
    KKR 03 is a galaxy 6.
  • BDF-521
    BDF-521 is a remote galaxy with a redshift of z = 7.
  • Cosmos Redshift 7
    Cosmos Redshift 7 (also known as COSMOS Redshift 7, Galaxy Cosmos Redshift 7, Galaxy CR7 or CR7) is a high-redshift Lyman-alpha emitter galaxy (meaning CR7 is one of the oldest, most distant galaxies), in the constellation Sextans, about 12.
  • Bullet Galaxy
    (Not to be confused with Bullet Group or Bullet Cluster.) The Bullet Galaxy (RXC J2359.3-6042 CC) is a galaxy in the galaxy cluster RXC J2359.
  • GN-108036
    GN-108036 is a distant galaxy discovered and confirmed by the Subaru Telescope and the Keck Observatory located in Hawaii; its study was also completed by the Hubble Space Telescope and the Spitzer Space Telescope.
  • NGC 235
    NGC 235 is a lenticular galaxy in the constellation of Cetus.
  • HCM-6A
    HCM-6A is a galaxy that was found in 2002 by a team led by Esther Hu from the University of Hawaii, using the Keck II Telescope in Hawaii.
  • Arp 7
    Arp 7 (PGC 24836) is a spiral galaxy in the constellation Hydra.
  • NGC 164
    NGC 164 is a galaxy located in the constellation Pisces.
