| Comment : |
These data was very noisy, but still
interesting.
As you can see are the orientations of the observatory very different between each observation.
At the edges where not all images cover you can see that the noise increase (less exposure). You can compare with my balcony photo of M51: My own photo of M51 Maybe I can do something interesting in the future with the UV spectra. |

| Comment : | Here you can better see the material transfer between the two galaxies. The small galaxy is the NGC 5195. 1:1 pixel scale. |
