It retrieves the names of sources which have been cross-identified with the named object. NED is built around a master list of extragalactic objects, for which multi-wavelength cross-identifications have been established. Cross-identifications are based on a statistical, rule-based cross-matching algorithm that matches names, positions, redshifts, and other relevant data to objects already in NED. These matches are also vetted by human experts on the NED staff. https://ned.ipac.caltech.edu/Documents/Guides/Searches#byname Catalog Education Research 2 https://ned.ipac.caltech.edu/cgi-bin/objsearch?of=xml_names& application/xml+votable objname Name of object string Radio Millimeter Infrared Optical UV EUV X-ray Gamma-ray
