NGC 4335 is an elliptical galaxy in the constellation of Ursa Major. It was discovered by German-British astronomer William Herschel on 17 April 1789. Its velocity with respect to the cosmic microwave background is 4,753±10 km/s, which corresponds to a Hubble distance of 228.7 ± 16.0 Mly (70.11 ± 4.91 Mpc).
NGC 4335 is a radio galaxy, i.e. it has giant regions of radio emission extending well beyond its visible structure.
According to Abraham Mahtessian, NGC 4335 and NGC 4362 form a pair of galaxies.
