Description

The two large galaxies  are NGC 4145 (SAB(rs)d, Dist - 58 million light years) and NGC 4151 ((R')SAB(rs)ab, Dist - 57 million light years).. Also in this image are NGC 4156 at a more distant 320 million light years; IC 3014 and IC 3022 at 300 and 299 million light years respectively.

There are many background galaxies seen on the full size image. There are multiple Quasars in this image (as seen on the annotated image) - the furthest of which, SDSS J121137.97+391717.3,  has a redshift of  3.304 (light travel time or Lookback of 11.77 billion years). These objects, information,  and some of the brighter stars are identified in the full FOV website annotated image  (pan and zoom).
