NGC 3718, NGC 3729 and Hickson 56 in Ursa Major
The two nebulous objects (yellow circles) just above NGC 3718 may be satellite galaxies, but there are no redshift esimates to confirm that. Hickson 56 is about 400 million light years away. For the other marked objects, types (G = galaxy, GCl = galaxy cluster, QSO = quasar) and distances in billions of light years are listed with each object. The quasar is marked by tick marks at lower left.
