NGC 1313
About 13 million light years from our galaxy in the direction of the southern constellation of the Reticulus, there is this bizarre galaxy called "Topsy Turvy" due to its irregular shape and its rotation axis not exactly in the center. It is not yet clear whether it has swallowed a small companion in the past.
