Draco
Category: Chains of galaxies

Also Hickson 55. This is a compact linear chain of five galaxies in the 15-17 magnitude region. Galaxy e, the second galaxy from the top, has more than double the redshift than the others. Still controversy if it is physically connected to the group.

Redshift is 0.0526 (15769km/s)
