Description


The NASA/IPAC Extragalactic Database (NED) provides a comprehensive fusion of multi-wavelength data for hundreds of millions of objects located beyond the Milky Way galaxy. As new observations are published in NASA mission archives, journal articles and sky survey catalogs, they are cross-identified with prior measurements and integrated in a unified database. Numerous derived quantities are also provided to facilitate scientific research. For more information see http://ned.ipac.caltech.edu/
