Stephan's Quintet is a group of five galaxies in the constellation Pegasus. Note that this picture includes a sixth nearby galaxy with similar redshift to the four high-redshift members of the group. Component labels and redshifts. The components are identified in this picture by their NGC number, with their redshift in kilometers per second given underneath each name. This picture was taken at the Kitt Peak National Observatory's 0.9-meter telescope in October of 1998 by Nigel Sharp.
