Arp 263 and Arp 43 (NGC3239 and IC607) in Leo

Revision title: Arp263 Closeup

Arp 263 = NGC 3239 is an irregular galaxy in the constellation of Leo, that is believed to be a galatic merger, even if it appears to be a completely isolated object. If this is the case, it managed to capture the only "thing" existing in its vicinity. The numerous galaxies appearing close to it, are in reality much deeper in space. Its distance is approximately 10 MPc.

Below, in the wide-field image, Arp 43 = IC607 is a barred galaxy in Leo, 70-80 Mpc away from earth.

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.
