Galaxy cluster
Abell 262
is part of the Perseus-Pisces supercluster. Located in the
Andromeda, it is at a distance of about 220 million
light-years. The most prominent galaxy in the center is the
elliptical cd-galaxy NGC 708,
and the close grouping
around it is also known as
The Fath (after
astronomer
Edward Arthur Fath,
1880-1959). It is
also interesting that
the
majority of bright galaxies here are spirals (some 20 of
them can be identified in the picture).
For
relatively small scope this group represents rather
difficult object, and so be
lenient.
