NGC 5000 is a barred spiral galaxy in the constellation Coma Berenices.[1] It was discovered by German-British astronomer William Herschel on 11 April 1785.[2] It is also known as LEDA 45658, MCG+05-31-144, UGC 8241, VV 460, III 366, h 1544, and GC 3433.
Herschel discovered it with the help of 18.7-inch f/13 speculum telescope.[3] It is very faint, very small and irregularly round with weak concentration.[4]
