    I think this object is a spiral galaxie though i can´t see any arm because of poor resolution.It´s very important the experience of the observers otherwise many of these galaxies maybemixed up with eliptical galaxies.

    Hello chiricahua,

    the way our classifications are modified

    • by the way our human brain and our perception system works
    • by the observational limits

    have already been the subject of very active research in the Zooniverse, especially in Galaxy Zoo.
    I intend to open a thread for discusssing how we could characterize these influences better.
