HCG 90 in Piscis Austrinus
Galaxy Group
PsA
Notes:
120 Mio Ly
HCG 90 is also known as the NGC 7176 group. Some of the galaxies in the neighbourhood have similar escape velocities of ~2500 km/s. In total there are thought to be about 19 members of the group. In 2016, Ordenes-BriceƱo et al. found five dwarf galaxy candidates around HCG 90: article Two of these galaxies can be identified in our image (dw2 and dw3 probably lie exactly under a spike).
