NGC 502, also occasionally referred to as PGC 5034 or UGC 922, is a lenticular galaxy in the constellation Pisces.[2] It is located approximately 113 million light-years from the Solar System[4] and was discovered on 25 September 1862 by German astronomer Heinrich Louis d'Arrest.[5] When the Morphological Catalogue of Galaxies was published between 1962 and 1974, the identifications of NGC 502 and NGC 505 were reversed. In reality, NGC 502 is equal to MGC +01-04-041 and not MCG +01-04-043 as noted in the catalogue.[6]
