NGC 5005 is a bar-spiral galaxy with an active nucleus of the Hubble-type SBbc in the constellation Hounds in the northern sky . It is estimated to be 44 million million light years from the Milky Way and about 75,000 light years in diameter. Together with NGC 5033 , it forms a pair that weakly influences each other. 
In the same area of the sky are u. a. the galaxies NGC 5002 , NGC 5014 , IC 4207 .
The Type Ia supernova SN 1996ai was observed here.
The object was discovered by Wilhelm Herschel on May 1, 1785 .
