UGC 810

What a gem this is. Another from the Hubble telescope via Astronomy Picture of the Day for 18/10/20.

This is galaxy UGC 810. Its odd shape is because it is in collision with UGC 1813 (out of picture below the frame.) Altogether the configuration is known as Arp 273. See previous photo here.
