NGC 7319is a highly distortedbarred spiral galaxythat is a member of the compactStephan's Quintet[5]group located in theconstellationPegasus,some 311megalight-yearsdistant from theMilky Way.[1]The galaxy's arms, dust and gas have been highly disturbed as a result of the interaction with the other members of the Quintet. Nearly all of the neutral hydrogen has been stripped from this galaxy, most likely as a result of a collision withNGC 7320csome 100 million years ago.[6]A pair of long, paralleltidal tailsextend southward from NGC 7319 in the direction of NGC 7320c, and is undergoingstar formation.[7]

This is a type 2Seyfert galaxy[1]with one of the largest circumnuclear outflows known in galaxies of this type. This outflow reaches velocities of up to500 km/sand spans 13 kly. Thestar formationrate appears normal for a spiral galaxy at1.98±0.58Myr−1,and the majority (68%) is occurring in thespiral arms.[7]The core appears faint in theultravioletband, indicating heavyextinctionwithin theactive galactic nucleus.[7]There is a three componentradiosource with an overall size of 5.5 kly that is straddling the nucleus.[8]A strongX-ray sourcewith a highredshifthas been detected at a separation of8″from the galactic nucleus, aquasi-stellar object.[2]

Onesupernovahas been observed in NGC 7319: On 19 August 1971, Leonida Rosino discovered SN 1971P (type unknown, mag. 16.8).[9]
