This is a partial list of IC objects, which are astronomical objects included in the Index Catalogue of Nebulae and Clusters of Stars. This two volume catalog was published in 1895 and 1908 by J. E. L. Dreyer. The constellation information for this table is available from the NGC2000.0: Complete New General Catalog and Index Catalog. [1]
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 following is a list of NGC objects, that is objects listed in the New General Catalogue (NGC). It is one of the largest comprehensive astronomical catalogues for deep sky objects such as star clusters, nebulae, and galaxies.

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.
Life is beautiful, but it is also shrouded in many mysteries. The intricacies of the human body, electricity, and how sounds create music are just a few of the many things that are difficult to ...
Other objects in the catalogue can be found in the other subpages of the list of NGC objects. The constellation information in these tables is from The Complete New General Catalogue and Index Catalogue of Nebulae and Star Clusters by J. L. E. Dreyer , [ 1 ] which was accessed using the VizieR Service. [ 2 ]
