"Exploring the Mysteries of UGC 11859: A Study on an Ultra-Thin Galaxy"

Astronomers have used the Gran Telescopio Canarias (GTC) to observe the ultra-thin galaxy UGC 11859 and have discovered a significant gravitational distortion in its disk, including the presence of a warp and a flare. The observations also suggest the existence of a small satellite galaxy near UGC 11859. These findings provide valuable insights into the structure and properties of this isolated galaxy.
