NGC 5331 ist ein interagierendes Galaxienpaar im Sternbild Virgo, welche etwa 450 Millionen Lichtjahre von der Milchstraße entfernt ist. Die Zentren der beiden Galaxien sind weniger als 30″ voneinander entfernt.
Das Objekt wurde am 13. Mai 1793 von dem deutsch-britischen Astronomen Friedrich Wilhelm Herschel entdeckt.[3]

Hubble Interacting Galaxy NGC 5331 (2008-04-24).jpg
NGC 5331 is a pair of interacting galaxies beginning to hold their arms . There is a blue trail which appears in the image flowing to the right of the system. NGC 5331 is very bright in the infrared, with about a hundred billion times the luminosity of the Sun. It is located in the constellation Virgo, the Maiden, about 450 million light-years away from Earth. This image is part of a large collection of 59 images of merging galaxies taken by the Hubble Space Telescope and released on the occasion of its 18th anniversary on 24th April 2008.
