Stellar streams are regarded as crucial objects to test galaxy formation models , with their morphology tracing the underlying potentials and their occurrence tracking the assembly history of the galaxies .
The existence of one of the most iconic stellar streams , the double loop around NGC 5907 , has recently been questioned by new observations with the Dragonfly telescope .
This new work only finds parts of the stream , even though they reach a 1 \sigma surface brightness limit of 30.3 mag arcsec ^ { -2 } in the g -band .
Using 7.2 hours of Luminance L -band imaging with the Milanković 1.4 meter telescope , we have re-observed the putative double loop part to confirm or reject this assessment .
We do not find signs of the double loop , but see only a single , knee-shaped stellar stream .
Comparing our to the data by the Dragonfly team , we find the same features .
Our observations reach a 1 \sigma surface brightness limit of 29.7 mag arcsec ^ { -2 } in the g -band . These findings emphasize the need for independent confirmation of detections of very low-surface brightness features .
