Hickson compact group 10 – a less frequent visitor on astrobin

Observation Notes

Hicksen Compact Group 10 is a nice apparent ensemble of galaxies with different morphology some 220 Mly away., namely NGC529, NGC 531, NGC 536 and NGC 542. It is not very often shown on astrobin, I wonder why, as the arrangement of galaxies combined with a few fairly bright foreground stars spans a quite pleasant ensemble, I think. Andromeda has more to show than just M31!

Data were taken on 2024, December 20, 24 and 2025, January 3
