Description

NGC7331 and Stefan's Quintet with the PW CDK14 from TDS CA.

NGC7331 is a galaxy similar to the Milky Way about 50M LY distant.  Stefan's Quintet in the upper right of the image comprises of NGC7320 a foreground galaxy that is about 40M LY distant and the other four galaxies that are about 290M LY distant.  The four distant galaxies are the interacting pair NGC7318A and NGC7318B, NGC7319 and the elliptical galaxy NGC7317.

There are many galaxies around NGC7331 and all around this image, which I find fascinating.
