Description

NGC 660 LRGB. I have been trying to find some of the more interesting and peculiar targets. I happened to stumble across this beauty. It is described as a polar ring galaxy. A result of a merger of 2 galaxies and the host being a lenticular galaxy. It lies about 45 Mly away in Pisces. 

I enjoy the non-typical targets. Embrace the strangeness.
