Interacting Galaxies Arp 299 - Interacting galaxies Arp 299 - The particular galaxy Arp 299 is located about 150 million light years away from Earth in the constellation of the Great Bear. Composed of galaxies IC 694 and NGC 3690, this interacting system presents important star formations. Astronomers also observed the appearance of several supernovae. Arp 299 is an ultra-aluminous infrared galaxy. Image obtained by the Hubble Space Telescope on 18 March 2002. This system consists of a pair of galaxies, dubbed IC 694 and NGC 3690, which made a close pass some 700 million years ago. As a result of this interaction, the system underwent a fierce burst of star formation. In the last fifteen years or so six supernovae have popped off in the outer reaches of the galaxy, making this system a distinguished supernova factory. Arp 299 belongs to the family of ultra - luminous infrared galaxies and is located in the constellation of Ursa Major, the Great Bear, approximately 150 million light - years away. It is the 299th galaxy in ARP's Atlas of Peculiar Galaxies. Despite its enormous amount of absorbing dust, enough violet and near - ultraviolet light leaks out for it to be number 171 in B.E. Markarian's catalog of galaxies with excess ultraviolet emission. Image taken by the Hubble space telescope on march 18, 2002
