#disturbed #irregular
unusual structure, bright veins rather than clumps
Another 'fried egg'!
Rather bright! I could have believed merger. SDSS classes the lower object of the pair as a star - no redshift, spectrum, etc 😦
#lenticular ?
blue elliptical ?
advanced merger?
The object on the left is a star. This image illustrates an example where the visual differences between the 2 classes of object is modest.
Awww bless! z=0.274
star overlap at 9 o'clock or exceptionally bright round clump? I could believe either.
Agreed - nicely balanced arms: http://skyserver.sdss3.org/dr9/en/tools/chart/chart.asp?ra=44.99764653&dec=36.81680892
Rather attractive!

I also thought merger. Curiously SDSS ranks the upper right object as a star yet it doesn't look like a point source - possibly a #QSO
very loose #barred spiral
I see an unusual green colour cast to this distinctly disturbed galaxy.
possible early merger with dwarf galaxies at 11 and 8 o'clock?
possible 3 way #merger
Is it just tidal debris creating this dark spot at 3 o'clock or something obscuring the view?
#AGN ?
If I remember correctly, this is the signature of an #asteroid. The effect is due to its motion between imaging at different wavelengths.
#AGN ? #quasar ? z=0.08
