Triplet Lwa
Galaktyki Tripletu Lwa: Messier 65 (prawa u góry) i Messier 66 (prawa poniżej) oraz NGC 3628 (po lewej) – fot. VLT Survey Telescope
Triplet Lwa (również Grupa M66) – mała grupa galaktyk znajdująca się w konstelacji Lwa w odległości 35 milionów lat świetlnych. Do grupy tej należą galaktyki: Messier 65, Messier 66 oraz NGC 3628. Triplet Lwa wraz z grupą Lew I może stanowić większą grupę należącą do Supergromady Lokalnej.

Triplet of bright galaxies in the constellation of Leo (The Lion), together with a multitude of fainter objects: distant background galaxies and much closer Milky Way stars. The image hints at the power of the VST and OmegaCAM for surveying the extragalactic Universe and for mapping the low brightness objects of the galactic halo. This image is a composite created by combining exposures taken through three different filters. Light that passed through a near-infrared filter was coloured red, light in the red part of the spectrum is coloured green, and green light is coloured magenta.
