NGC 4725 is a medium-sized galaxy located in the Coma Berenices constellation. This galaxy is not as well known as others but with a magnitude of class 10 it is worth visiting, it is curious to see that it only has one spiral arm, which also gives the sensation that it squeezes the nucleus of NGC 4725. NGC4747 is a quite peculiar galaxy, in this image we can see it in the upper right part, the shape reminds me of a bird flying over the beautiful island NGC 4725.

This galaxy shows symptoms of having had some type of gravitational interaction, that is what the wings look like of a bird could be tidal currents, due to this it is considered that NGC 4747 is one of the companion galaxies of NGC 4725, the gravitational interaction between the two and has distorted the spiral structure NGC 4747.
For the end we leave the most distant, far exceeding the 40 million light years that separate us from NGC 4725, NGC 4712 is the small spiral galaxy that is just below NGC 4725 and separates it from the Milky Way approximately 200 million of light years, it cannot be said that it is in the neighborhood.

The “AstroBin Image of the Day and Top Picks”, or IOTD/TP, is a long-running system to promote beautiful, interesting, peculiar, or otherwise amazing astrophotographs, with a focus on technical excellence. Learn more.

Submitted The date and time when you submitted this image for IOTD/TP consideration.	...
Views by Submitters (available since September 19th, 2023) Every image is assigned to 50% of available Submitters. In the event that at least 80% of them don't view the image before its time in the IOTD/TP process expires, it's assigned to the other 50% of Submitters and the process begins anew.
Promotions by Submitters When 3 distinct Submitters promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for Top Pick status. This requirement, in addition to anonymization of images and distribution to only a subset of them, prevents biases and ensures that the best images are selected.
Promotions by Reviewers When 3 distinct Reviewers promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for IOTD status.
Early dismissal Staff members have a lot of images to inspect on a daily basis, and they can dismiss images if they believe they don't meet the requirements for IOTD/TP selection. If an image is dismissed 5 times, it's removed from the process. This streamlines the process and ensures that any bias present in promotions could be overruled by other staff members.
