This is the Big Bear Pair!

This relatively unknown pair of galaxies is a beautiful sight in the Ursa Major constellation, also known as the Great Bear constellation. Although located a whopping 150,000 light years from each other, these two galaxies gravitationally interact with each other, creating an S-shape!
