Elliptical galaxy in the constellation Cetus
NGC 359 is an elliptical galaxy located approximately 238 million light-years from the Solar System in the constellation Cetus. It was discovered on September 2, 1864, by Albert Marth. It was described by Dreyer as "extremely faint, very small."
This elliptical galaxy has an extremely long tidal tail and shell structure, seen across several deep-sky surveys, indicating a likely-recent and possibly ongoing interaction with nearby galactic neighbor NGC 364.
