Arp 216 (NGC 7679 & 7682)
|
|
Arp 216 is a member of the class Adjacent Loops. Dr. Arp's Atlas note says
"patches north of disturbed spiral, emission strong". The Atlas field is
almost as large as this field, with both galaxies making up the Arp. The
barred spiral to the left is NGC 7682 while the disturbed galaxy to the right is
NGC 7679. The little bright patch on the left end of NGC 7679 has a
Mitchell Anonymous designation, 2328+0330, but it isn't obvious to me that it is
a separate galaxy.
