PGC 2387685
PGC 2387685 is a peculiar galaxy located 440 million light-years in the Hercules constellation.[1][2] The galaxy seems to be gravitationally interacting with another neighboring galaxy PGC 3087279, which in turn causes both of the galaxies to have distorted shapes.[3] Together, they form the galaxy pair, ZW I 136.[4]
