Description

Burbidge's chain comprise four small but distant galaxies about 300 million light years away. The left most two of these galaxies are apparently interacting.  Dominating this image is of course NGC 247 which is a spiral galaxy around 11 million light years away. This is a LHaRGB taken over a couple of nights in October 2022.
