Optical companions
Several galaxies are not physically associated with NGC 5011, but appear close to NGC 5011 in the night sky. PGC 45847 is a spiral galaxy that is also known as NGC 5011A.[5] PGC 45918 is a lenticular galaxy[6] some 156 million light-years away from the Earth, in the Centaurus Cluster, and is designated NGC 5011B.[7] PGC 45917 is a dwarf galaxy, also designated NGC 5011C.[8][7] Although NGC 5011B and 5011C appear close together, they are no signs of them interacting.[7] NGC 5011C is actually much closer and is in the Centaurus A/M83 Group, at 13 million light years away.[7]

NGC 5011 ist eine 11,3 mag helle elliptische Galaxie vom Hubble-Typ E1 im Sternbild Zentaur, die etwa 134 Millionen Lichtjahre von der Milchstraße entfernt. Sie bildet zusammen mit den Nicht-NGC-Objekten PGC 45847 (auch NGC 5011 A genannt), PGC 45918 (NGC 5011 B) sowie PGC 45917 (NGC 5011 C) eine optische Galaxiengruppe und wurde am 3. Juni 1834 von John Herschel mit einem 18-Zoll-Spiegelteleskop entdeckt,[3] der sie dabei mit „pretty bright, pretty small, round, gradually brighter in the middle; 15 arcseconds; in a curve of 3 or 4 stars“ beschrieb. Bei einer zweiten Beobachtung notierte er „pretty bright, round, small, pretty gradually brighter in the middle; 12 arcseconds. In the middle of an arc of four stars“; seine dritte Notiz lautete „pretty faint, small, round. The middle object in an arc of stars“.[4]
