ASTRO: Arp 200
Information on the area of Arp 200, NGC 1134, is quite limited. Arp
classified it as "Galaxies not classifiable as S(piral) or E(lliptical): material ejected from nuclei". I'm not all that sure what he is referring to. There is a tidal splash coming from the north end of the galaxy heading west toward UGC 02362. Then there's the odd arm on the east side. At least it comes from the nucleus. But it doesn't appear to be ejected, just a arm with bright knots. The galaxy at the bottom is IC 0267. All three are related as they all lie at a distance of about 155 million light years. There's no information on the other galaxies in the field as to distance. The only other galaxy of any size is LEDA 213115 to the west of UGC 02362. There are many distant galaxies in the image but I couldn't find anything on them. Arp 200 is located in the constellation of Aries. Arp's photo of this galaxy: http://nedwww.ipac.caltech.edu/level...ig_arp200.jpeg 14"LX200R @ f/10, L=5x10'RGB=2x10', STL-11000XM, Paramount ME Rick -- Correct domain name is arvig and it is net not com. Prefix is correct. Third character is a zero rather than a capital "Oh". |

ASTRO: Arp 200
Very impressive image Rick. Very good detail, colours and quite a
spectacular object with it's drawn out arm. Stefan "Rick Johnson" schrieb im Newsbeitrag ter.com... Information on the area of Arp 200, NGC 1134, is quite limited.
