The NGC 5679 group, also known as Arp 274, is a triplet of galaxies, NGC5679A, NGC5679B and NGC5679C spanning about 200000 light-years and at some 400 million light years from Earth in the constellation Virgo. Arp 274 refers to the Atlas of Peculiar Galaxies, compiled by Halton Arp in 1966.
In Space Engine it looks like all of the galaxies are extremely close to each other, although redshift measurements of the three galaxies give these radial velocity values: 7483 km/s for NGC5679C, 7618 km/s for NGC5679A and 8654 km/s for the central galaxy - NGC 5679B. The relatively high redshift for the center galaxy means that it is much farther away - about 65 million light years behind the other two galaxies. Thus, in reality the center galaxy is likely a background object. The NGC 5679 group was previously thought to be interacting gravitationally, however the newer Hubble images seems to confirm suspicions that the center galaxy is not interacting, as the galaxy arms are not distorted like typical interacting galaxies.
In the video camera path goes through NGC 5679A. Behind its galactic plane there is biggest galaxy in this group - NGC 5679B. Small purple galaxy visible on the left is NGC 5679C.
