NGC 4273 galaxy group close up

NGC 4273 is the small galaxy in the center of the picture. Size 2,3 x 1,5 arcmin and 103 Mio Lj Dist.

NGC 4281 is the elliptical galaxy above Size 3,0 x 1,6 arcmin and 116 Mio Lj Dist.

IC 3153 is the small galaxypatch just right of NGC 4273 Size 0,5 x 0,5 arcmin and 520 Mio Lj. Dist

Many other small galaxies are in this group and area

There is a very distant galaxy cluster down in the middle of the field which is called RC-GN 1516

I did not find any information about the distance, but it must be almost a billion Lj. based on the size of the components.

Hope you enjoy this very interesting galaxy field!

The “AstroBin Image of the Day and Top Picks”, or IOTD/TP, is a long-running system to promote beautiful, interesting, peculiar, or otherwise amazing astrophotographs, with a focus on technical excellence. Learn more.

Submitted The date and time when you submitted this image for IOTD/TP consideration.	...
Views by Submitters (available since September 19th, 2023) Every image is assigned to 50% of available Submitters. In the event that at least 80% of them don't view the image before its time in the IOTD/TP process expires, it's assigned to the other 50% of Submitters and the process begins anew.
Promotions by Submitters When 3 distinct Submitters promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for Top Pick status. This requirement, in addition to anonymization of images and distribution to only a subset of them, prevents biases and ensures that the best images are selected.
Promotions by Reviewers When 3 distinct Reviewers promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for IOTD status.
Early dismissal Staff members have a lot of images to inspect on a daily basis, and they can dismiss images if they believe they don't meet the requirements for IOTD/TP selection. If an image is dismissed 5 times, it's removed from the process. This streamlines the process and ensures that any bias present in promotions could be overruled by other staff members.
