NED question

Why doesn't NED post Hubble pictures? This is in about the same coordinates as an LBG with 3.4 RS and also has a companion about the same age. I don't know for sure if it's the same galaxy though. Any reason why it's hard to find Hubble pictures to make a positive ID?

If I put in the coordinates (RA: 53.0972401, DEC: -27.865797) I get an error message. So, it seems that this image is outside of the SDSS footprint.

Hubble IDs: I think NED is lagging behind with transcribing ts Hubble IDs. It will catch up.
NED coordinates: if an object is within 0.02 arcmin of the target, I have decided that it is the same object. So all these would be the same object in other databases.
