NGC 5679 was imaged by Hubble in 2009, in a combination of blue, visible, infrared and Hα filters.
[5] Redshift measurements of the three galaxies give these radial velocity values, from left to right: 7483, 8654, and 7618 km/s.
The NGC 5679 group was previously thought to be interacting gravitationally, however the newer Hubble image seems to confirm suspicions that the center galaxy is not interacting, as the galaxy arms are not distorted like typical interacting galaxies.
[5] One supernova has been observed in NGC 5679: SN 1982D (type unknown, mag.
18) was discovered by Halton Arp and Jack W. Sulentic on 23 March 1982.
