Description

this is a nice little galaxy group in Draco that I imaged a little while back and never quite got around to researching. There is not a lot out there about this group, so here is just some basic info that I have found.

NGC 6307 is classified as SB0-a, distance of 140MLy, an apparent magnitude of 12.9 and is 1.3' x 1' in size. NGC 6306 is classified as SBa-b, distance 140MLy, apparent mag. 13.7 and is size 1' x 18". NGC 6310 is type Sb, distance 160MLy, apparent mag. 13.1, size 1.9' x 24".

Thanks for looking.
