Description:
    This document describes a machine-readable version of a portion of the
    "Catalogue of Galaxies and Clusters of Galaxies" (Zwicky, et al.). The
    published catalogue covers 560 Palomar Sky Survey fields, and for each
    field it lists both individual galaxies and clusters of galaxies. Its
    limiting magnitude for galaxies is approximately +15.5 apparent
    photographic magnitude. The present machine-readable version includes
    only the individual galaxies. It consists of two files, the first of
    which lists the galaxies (data file) and the second of which
    enumerates the fields covered (headers file). Note: the abbreviation
    ADC used in this document refers to the Astronomical Data Center,
    NASA/Goddard Space Flight Center.
