ByAlvin Huey

Usually printed in 3 - 5 business days
The Vorontsov-Velyaminov Catalogue of Interacting Galaxies (Part I) - Dr. Boris Vorontsov-Velyaminov of Sternberg Astronomical Institute, Moscow University, created this list of interacting galaxies in 1959. A majority of the systems were found on the POSS plates from the Palomar 48-inch Schmidt astrograph. The original Part I list contained 355 systems, many of which are listed by Dr. Halton Arp AFTER Dr. V-V did his list. Note: This observing guide will contain only the non-Arp VV objects as the Arp are covered in my publication, “Observing the Arp Peculiar Galaxies”. Many of these objects require a fairly large telescope (16"+)
