LEDA 2073461 is a spiral galaxy located 950 million light-years away in the Ursa Major constellation.[1][2] It seems to be interacting with another galaxy, SDSS J115331.[3] But in reality, SDSS J115331 is merely a background galaxy which its alignment happens to overlap with LEDA 2073461.[3] It is unlikely they will ever collide with each other.
