Articles with the IC number in the title use [[Category:IC objects|####]], dropping the IC prefix, and using only the number. The number should be padded up to 4 digits using zeroes. Articles without the IC number in the title use [[Category:IC objects]]. A redirect containing the IC number should also be added to the category, sorted as above.
The NGC contains 7,840 objects, including galaxies, star clusters and emission nebulae. Dreyer published two supplements to the NGC in 1895 and 1908, known as the Index Catalogues (abbreviated IC), describing a further 5,386 astronomical objects. Thousands of these objects are best known by their NGC or IC numbers, which remain in widespread use.
An astronomical catalogue is a list or tabulation of astronomical objects, typically grouped together because they share a common type, morphology, origin, means of detection, or method of discovery. Astronomical catalogs are usually the result of an astronomical survey of some kind.
[1] [2] Moore compiled a list of 109 objects to match the commonly accepted number of Messier objects (he excluded M110 [3]), and the list was published in Sky & Telescope in December 1995. [ 3 ] Moore used his other surname – Caldwell – to name the list, since the initial of "Moore" is already used for the Messier catalogue.
The Messier catalogue: the Messier objects are a set of astronomical objects first listed by French astronomer Charles Messier in 1771. Nebulae and Star Clusters was published in 1781, with objects M1–M110. The New General Catalogue or NGC, compiled in the 1880s by J. L. E. Dreyer, lists objects NGC 0001 – NGC 7840. It is one of the largest ...

It is one of the largest comprehensive astronomical catalogues for deep sky objects such as star clusters, nebulae, and galaxies.
