NGC 2770 is a spiral galaxy in the northern constellation of Lynx,[5] near the northern constellation border with Cancer.

It was discovered by German-born astronomer William Herschel on December 7, 1785.

J. L. E. Dreyer described it as, "faint, large, much extended 150°, mottled but not resolved, 2 stars to north".

[9] The morphological classification of SBc[3] indicates a barred spiral with moderately-wound arms.

The physical properties of this galaxy are similar to those of the Milky Way.
