Description

NGC 5297 is a barred galaxy with a size of 5,6 x 1,3 arcmin. The galaxy is interacting with the nearby galaxy NGC 5296 even so, that they are not listed in ARPs catalog. The group is in a distance of ar. 110 Mio Lj. The small companion has a size of 0,9 x 0,6 arcmin only! The tidal stream between the two galaxies is soft but clearly visible.
There are plenty of small and smallest distant galaxies in the background. Everything which is a small red patch is a distant galaxy. Have a look on the full field of view at full resolution.
The data are from April 2020 but I did a complete new processing with the actual new programs which give a much better resolution and better weak structures.
