Galaxy group information

IC 167 is a member of the NGC 697 group.[3] There is some evidence that IC 167 is interacting with nearby NGC 694 as they seem to share HI regions.[3] The tidal warping of IC 167 also is indicative of an interaction with another galaxy.[3] How long the interaction between these two galaxies has been occurring is the subject of current research.[4]

gollark: <@444305412079222785> Sorry it took me a while to get around to checking, but I tried the `tcpdump` thing you suggested and it says "tcpdump: invalid option -- 'g'".
gollark: ... *just* as I type that, another "B4ckdoor-owned-you" one.
gollark: I wanted to do something fun with them like give them a HTTP response which never finishes, but sadly the bots seem to have stopped.
gollark: ```<127.0.0.1> 27.121.85.10 [07/Jun/2020:16:59:55 +0000] "POST /cgi-bin/ViewLog.asp HTTP/1.1" 301 169 "-" "B4ckdoor-owned-you"<> 96.69.158.193 [07/Jun/2020:17:19:21 +0000] "POST /boaform/admin/formPing HTTP/1.1" 400 157 "-" "polaris botnet"```Some of the HTTP requests I get are so funny. The second one literally says it's from a botnet.
gollark: Personally I really dislike Go as a language, because it *pretends* to be simple but has weird special cases everywhere to make stuff work and an awful type system, and is generally hostile to abstracting things.
