I'll happily watch 7,840 more video from you guys, every time the new subject is fascinating :)
and so the new series, hundreds and hundreds episodes long, has began

And the New General Catalogue begins... but the ending of this video inspires another question for Professor Merrifield: Is there a catalogue specifically for galaxies? No star clusters or bits of galaxies?
Never bothered commenting on "personalities" before, but MM is a guy you'd want teaching whatever your area of interest. Clear command but with the humility to be unsure, and an enthusiasm that can't be missed though not overbearing.
Good news everyone! The Messier series took ~10 years for 110 objects, so the ~7700 objects of the NGC (excluding Messier) should give us another 700 years of fantastic content!!
"All science is either physics or stamp collecting." Love that - totally using that from now on.
Wow! Wasn't expecting that, after Messier was finished! But that's quite a challenge you took on, you've created expectations 🤩😅!
WAIT NO WAY THEY ARE DOING IT
I’m an urban geographer. Yes, that’s definitely stamp collecting. 😁🌎 Overjoyed to see the series continue and more from Professor Mike and all the others. Thanks Brady!
I’ve been waiting for NGC-1
The NGC catalouge is HUGE! Looking forward to this!! Imaging NGC 1333 as we speek. Looks like a small troll in a ballerina dress!
Love Prof Merrifield’s explanations!
I love galaxies! It's just amazing how something so enormous would have these spiral shapes.
Glad you’re still doing this kind of video!
Been re-binging these videos lately so its nice to see a new one pop up ☺
Been following this channel for many years. Great to see you putting out interesting content
Ohh. Going through the NGC will keep you busy for a while. :-) Can't wait to celebrate the video for NGC 7000
I watch a lot of astronomy, but this channel keeps teaching me detail I have never heard. Loved everything down to the quick inserts to show us what is being talked about.
So excited to see more of these videos!! Thank you all for making such wonderful things!
And I thought this channel was being ambitious trying to cover all the Messier objects... I'll have enough Deep Sky videos to last me until we merge with NGC 224 🥰
Brady, i hope you do a video here, or on Objectivity on the work and publications of the Parramatta Observatory. Love all your videos, but ive only recently discovered you.
Ooh! I'm so excited for videos about NGC objects! This one was a very good introduction and the paper about λ_R and its association with active/inactive galaxies the was really interesting.
Omg here we go again!!!!
Babe wake up, new DeepSkyVideos series just dropped
YES I'm so excited for this catalog series 😅
Very interesting video there. Hope You also Cover The Caldwell Object's. This is Like a New Beginning, Love it! 👏
I've seen NGC 1 a couple of times; it's faint but doable if you have an 8- to 10- inch telescope. "*11 and *14" refers to the magnitudes of the stars (NGC 1 described as lying between a mag.11 star and a mag,14 star).
Great video!
OMG, the mad man, they are doing it!
Brady, if you’re doing all the NGC objects, which would be incredible, you’re gonna have to increase the pace over the Messiers by orders of magnitude! Good luck!
There are a lot of NGC objects .... infinite content!
"To infinity, and Beyond!" After the NGC, then "Everything Else"? Be sure to get Dr. Becky Smethurst to cover her favorite AGNs!
Been watching this shit for like ten years and now there are about 80,000 more on the horizon
Nice!!
The "Bart." after Sir John's name is the abbreviation for "Baronet".
Excellent! And when you’re done with the NGC, there’s always the PGC - Principal Galaxies Catalogue, good for 73,197 episodes! 😉

The UGC: hi 😃
Part 1 of a new 8000-ish part series 🙂
Another good reason to collect them, is eventually we'll need all that data along with all the proper motions of the stars, to build a *_Dynamic Digital Navigational Map_* of this galaxy so that eventually, when we make that step; we can navigate it. A static star map of the galaxy is no good when the stars are moving. :)
whole NGC LET'S GOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!
"All science is either physics or stamp collecting" 1) he died of an untreated hernia 2) In 1971, NZ issued a stamp I'm his honor
HESS J1731-347. What catalogue is that from?
let's gooooo!
Yay!
Could you please make a video about the coordinate system(s?) used in astronomy? With everything moving, earth's rotation, earth going round the sun, solar system moving in the milky way, how do you make a reliable coordinate system?

Wait wait... so wouldn't an accretion disk spread out the angular momentum of the black hole? My guess is that's why active galaxies follow a more ordered rotation.
Maybe the orderly movement is like water going around in the sink and down the plug-hole.
Dang. Prof Merrifield must’ve time traveled ahead a few years since his last showing, the entanglement Nobel prize video?
What if they redo the study, but use lambda as one of the matching criteria?
Oh are we starting all over again finally? xD
Catalogues and cataloguing are necessary are they help people in finding things and seeing patterns and making connections. Imagine if there were no catalogues, each generation would have to start from scratch. Dwyer have not been the brightest star in his field I am sure he made useful contributions, e.g. the NGC and IC. And, lastly as an amateur astronomer, I have seen both NGC 1 and NGC 2, I seem to remember 2 was much fainter visually.
How did the Hershey brothers know they were looking at other galaxies as mentioned in the video? I thought Hubble established that.
I thought we will have the Caldwell catalogue oh well
200 million light years .... Relatively near 😁😁😁😁 our universe rocks 🤘
And so, it begins.
Its (a tiny bit) frustrating to me that the Milky Way isn't numbered in NGC, or PGC etc. Its feels similar to counting all the planets in the solar system and excluding earth. I understand that they're observation based and you can't externally observe the galaxy. its just feels either too humble or too smug.
Great video as always! (pov trying to find an original comment)
Wouldn't it be nicer to have a coordinate system where the the coordinates of stellar objects changed as little as possible?
I once made a PowerPoint that contained at least some information about every Messier object. With two "bonus" objects (n and X Persei). I am NOT going to attempt the NGC catalogue.
Woo hooo!!!
thanks tube-u-all for *not* letting me know...for a month. sigh
When astronomers have an "over abundance" of data, they make a list out of it. Then, someone else sorts thru it make a list of just Globular Clusters, another makes a list of Planetary Nebula, ... ect.

NG-0 Hello! ;O)-
NGC 7217 is actually much more beautiful than NGC 1. I say screw the methodology, let's nominate 7217 to be number 1!
Oh yikes! The NGC catalog!
Spoilers for episode 2906.
First!! hehe
