It is located 145 million light years away in the constellation Aquarius which, given its apparent dimensions, means that NGC 7585 is about 100,000 light years across.

The shells are irregular and have radial and loop form, and one of them looks like a faint outer arm.

The shells are probably the result of a merger that took place over a billion years ago.

On the other hand, NGC 7592 appears disturbed, however it has double the redshift.
