Remarks: NGC 92 is the left galaxy, NGC 88 is the center galaxy, NGC 89 is the rightmost galaxy and NGC 87 is the upper galaxy. The red bulge of NGC 92 looks a little bit like the red "halo" of M82, but we do not know any details about it. Comments are wellcome!
   
Bemerkungen: NGC92 ist die linke, NGC88 die im Zentrum, NGC 89 die Galaxie ganz rechts und NGC 87 die Galaxie oben. Der rote "Bulg" um NGC 92 erinnert ein wenig an den roten "Bulg" von M82, aber wir haben keine näheren Informationen über ihn. Kommentare hierzu sind willkommen!
