In this video you can see this pair of colliding spiral galaxies, the same is called "The Rats", due to their long tails of stars and gas that emanate from each galaxy. Also called NGC 4676, this pair will eventually merge into a single giant galaxy. NGC 4676 is 300 million light-years away in the constellation Coma Berenices.
