13h 20m 24.9s, −20° 36′ 40″NGC 5009 (also known as 2MASX J13104698+5005301, UGC 8258[2] and PGC 45739[3])[4] is a barred spiral galaxy located in the constellation Canes Venatici.[5] It was discovered on 26 September 1900 by the American astronomer DeLisle Stewart.[6] NGC 5009 is situated north of the celestial equator and, as such, it is more easily visible from the Northern Hemisphere. Given its visual magnitude of 15.6, NGC 5009 is invisible to the naked eye and only visible through long exposure photography.[5]
