      Description

      NGC 134 is a galaxy in the constellation Sculptor, around 62 million light years away. Due to the inclination of 78 degrees, the inner plane of the disk is somewhat obscured. The two tidal tails are a disturbance caused by the passage of another compact galaxy of the Telescopium/Grus group. Apart from the larger companion galaxies, there are a large number of small galaxies and galaxy clusters cavorting in the background.
