Gru's Triplet

Located in the Gru Constellation, not in this FOV is galaxy NGC 7552 which makes up a quartet, the smallest of the three. NGC 7590, and its mate next to it, Ngc 7599. below that is the most studied of the four NGC 7582. Thuis galaxy is a type 2 Seyfert galaxy, such a classification is due to the fact that the galaxy has an extremely bright supermassive central black hole very similar to a quasar (most energetic objects in the universe). The black hole of NGC 7582 is about 10 million times the mass of our sun. Magnitude s 14,11,11 respectively. Captured 3/8/23 nearly 4hrs data in 4 min subs, real issue with gradients in this processed in PS. Each about 10million light years from Earth
