Arp 299 is a galaxy system located about 134 million light-years away in the constellation Ursa Major. It consists of two interacting galaxies, NGC 3690 and IC 694, which are merging due to their gravitational attraction. This interaction has led to intense star formation, making it a site of significant astronomical interest. The system is classified as a starburst galaxy, meaning it is experiencing a rapid rate of star formation compared to typical galaxies. Observations of Arp 299 provide valuable insights into the processes of galaxy evolution and the effects of galactic collisions on star formation.
