The galaxy group around NGC 7771 and NGC 7769 in the constellation Pegasus exhibits strong gravitational interaction. Not only the two large ones, also the smaller galaxies NGC 7770, PGC214993, PGC 72612 and PGC214992 tug on each other and disrupt their outward appearance. They develop tidal tails of stars.
