Markarian's Chain
Markarian’s Chain is a stretch of galaxies that forms part of the Virgo Cluster that from Earth appears to form a smoothly curved line. Charles Messier first discovered two of the galaxies, M84 and M86, in 1781. The other galaxies seen in the chain were discovered by William Herschel.
