Hi all,

An image of NGC 772, an unusual unbarred spiral galaxy has been uploaded. This galaxy is distorted by the tidal interaction with NGC 770, one of its satellites, and the result is an overdeveloped spiral arm as well as a frantic star formation there. You can find some more info and the image at:

NGC 772 and companions

Enjoy!
