edge on?

  • prettselk by prettselk

    Merging galaxies of unequal size. It seems material from the larger object is bent towards the smaller. Are the seen edge on? and thus not in the sme plane..? Or are they seen from "top", both beng elongated?

    Hi prettselk and welcome to the Zoo !

    Looks like it's two disks or spirals, seen edge on, merging.
    Nice catch !
