Green Ball Galaxy with a large pink spot to the side

    Not terribly smooth. The pink spot looks like it has a navel and the green part looks like it is shedding mass in wisps. Most peculiar thing I have seen today,

    I think it's an entire area where there was a camera problem. Check out the zoomed out from SkyServer, all the neighbors have odd colors like that.

    Correct ! Some imaging and filter problems here.

    Btw, the object is not a galaxy but a star from our galaxy.

    Classify as star/artifact

    Happy hunting! 😄
