Correct identification of this object

[edit]

The correct identification of some NGC objects is difficult due to errors and misunderstandings of the original observer and of the astronomers that, during time, made and re-analysed the data.

Use the information of different sources, NGC 3465 has different identifications. Following the prescription of NGC/IC project NGC 3465 and NGC 3500 are different objects.

Source UGC PGC Other NGC Link Notes
NGC/IC project in VizieR (Q1662358) UGC 6056 PGC 33099 --- [1] right identification
NASA/IPAC Extragalactic Database (Q488563) UGC 6056 PGC 33099 --- [2] right identification
Lyon-Meudon Extragalactic Database (Q6709611) UGC 6056 PGC 30999 --- [3] right identification
SIMBAD (Q654724) UGC 6056 PGC 30999 NGC 3500 [4] right identification, but wrong assignment to NGC 3500!


It would be prudent do not use SIMBAD (Q654724) database to recover catalogue names of this object!
