dc.descriptionNGC 3079 is a very active, disturbed galaxy which has been observed to have X-ray and radio ejections from it as well as an optical superbubble along its minor axis. Here we show that the brightest X-ray sources within about 40 arcmin are in large excess of background values. The X-ray sources are identified as quasars and AGN's which are aligned and spaced across the Seyfert nucleus to a degree which is unlikely to be due to chance. The famous double quasar which has been interpreted as a gravitational lens is discussed in terms of the the X - ray and ULX sources which appear associated with NGC 3079.
