Stefan,

Great image of an interesting pair! They must be interacting.

Here is a link to info on the small edge-on galaxy:

Thanks for the link George.
I was too dumb to find information about the distance of the small edge-on,
must be quite a bit away (guessing at 300 million lightyears).

Stefan,

There's no red shift data on that edge-on galaxy so I can't give a
distance estimate. However, I'd bet that it's considerably more distant than
300 million light years - probably more like double that.
