Difference between Interacting galaxy and Messier 81

Interacting galaxy vs. Messier 81

Interacting galaxies (colliding galaxies) are galaxies whose gravitational fields result in a disturbance of one another. Messier 81 (also known as NGC 3031 or Bode's Galaxy) is a spiral galaxy about 12 million light-years away, in the constellation Ursa Major.
