Description

Photographic and spectral data for the close blue group of interacting galaxies VV 644 are given. The conclusion is put foward that VV 644 is a nest of galaxies consisting of 6 compact components. The estimated parameters of the nest are: average radial velocity 3704 km/s, velocity dispersion 44 km/s, size 15 kpc, absolute photographic magnitude - 20sup(m)x2, mass 1.2x1010 Msub(Sun) ratio M/L=0.27. The similarity of VV 645 to the studied object is noticed
