ESO 306-17 is a fossil group giant elliptical galaxy in the Columba constellation, about 1.07 million light-years in diameter,[1][2] and roughly 517 million light-years away.[1]

The galaxy is situated alone in a volume of space about it. It is theorized that the galaxy cannibalized its nearest companions, hence, being a fossil group.[3] The galaxy is a giant elliptical of type cD3[1] (E+3), one of the largest types of galaxies.
