Two showpieces of Pegasus in one field. NGC 7331 — the anchor of the "Deer Lick Group" — is a graceful flocculent spiral about 40 million light-years away, once considered a twin of the Milky Way; the smaller galaxies scattered behind it are ten times more distant, a chance line-of-sight grouping. In the same frame sits Stephan's Quintet, the first compact galaxy group ever discovered (1877): four of its five members are locked in a slow-motion collision some 290 million light-years out.
