NGC 185 is a dwarf elliptical galaxy located approximately 2.0 million light-years away in the constellation Cassiopeia. It is part of the Local Group, which includes our own Milky Way galaxy and the Andromeda Galaxy. NGC 185 has an apparent magnitude of about 10.4, making it faintly visible through small telescopes. This galaxy is characterized by its relatively small size and low surface brightness. NGC 185 contains a mix of older stars and some younger star clusters, indicating ongoing star formation. It is often studied to understand the evolution of dwarf galaxies and their role in the larger cosmic structure.
