Resumen:
We present the first photometric characterization and determination of radial velocities of globular cluster (GC) candidates belonging to the system of the elliptical galaxy NGC 5044. This rich system presents several thousand candidates and its bimodal color distribution is dominated by blue GCs. We have spectroscopically confirmed 27 members of the system, with an averaged radial velocity of 2833 km/s. One of the confirmed members is a strong candidate to be the first Ultra-Compact Dwarf discovered in NGC 5044.
