Arp 286 - Virgo trio

Arp 286 consists of three galaxies that are gravitationally interacting almost 65 million light-years away. The large spiral galaxy at the center is NGC 5566. To its left is the small, blue spiral galaxy NGC 5569. At the right there is the distorted spiral NGC 5560. It is presumably distorted by the gravity of NGC 5569.
