Highly sensitive 21 cm observations between 5450 and 6950 km/s have measured H I emission from the Stephan's Quintet region on a uniformly spaced grid. A composite spectrum presenting a total profile of the region reveals weak emission at 5700 km/s and features centered at 6000 and 6600 km/s. All three neutral hydrogen features appear to be spatially extended, with dimensions 100 kpc and masses 10 to the 10th solar masses (assuming D(H I) = 88 Mpc). The H I emission regions are offset from each other and the optical galaxies in the quintet.
