Description

I've been looking at a few Arp galaxies again recently and here's one of them.

Designated as Arp 30 by Halton Arp, this is in fact 2 galaxies, probably

connected though it's not easy to tell, even looking at the Arp atlas image.

Whatever, they are pretty small, pretty faint and pretty unspectacular in my

image. ngc 5365a is the face-on galaxy, mag 13.8, size 1' x 1'; ngc 6365b is the

edge-on galaxy, mag 14.0, size 1' x 0.2'. Distances a pretty

remote 390 MLy.
