THis is an unusual system, apparently consisting of two interacting galaxies; an edge-on and a face-on spiral.

600/800mm - 24" (2/18/20): at 375x; between faint and fairly faint, fairly small, low surface brightness glow, 30" diameter, with a small, slightly brighter core/nucleus. There was a hint of odd structure but it was too subtle to identify with any confidence." Situated between a mag 12.3 star 1.2' S and a mag 13 star 0.7' N. Located 7.7' ENE of mag 9 HD 49115.
