NGC 35 is a spiral galaxy of Hubble type in the constellation Cetus south of the ecliptic . It is estimated to be 269 million light years from the Milky Way and about 55,000 light years across.
The galaxies NGC 17 , NGC 34 , IC 2 are located in the same area of ​​the sky .

NGC 35 and NGC 17 / (34) are only a few arc minutes apart, which could be less than half a million light years. That would mean they are gravitationally bound to one another, and their deformation can be due to gravitational interactions.

The object was discovered on November 21, 1886 by the American astronomer Lewis A. Swift .
