Description

This seyfert galaxy NGC 1097 with its tidal streams has been taken by two Swiss Astronomer Eduard von Bergen and Hansjoerg Waelchli on the astro farm Tivoli in Namibia.

We found support for a deeply image processing of the background and the tidal streams  from Christoph Oehler.

Therefore you can find better four tidal streams on the second picture in inverted black and white vision.

A good description of this very interesting Arp 77 galaxy will be wrtitten from Peter Riepe on astronomie.de page.
