What is that black dot in the middle of this extremely compact center of this galaxy with a jet seeming to stream out of it?

The darker dot in the center of this galaxy is an optical artifact caused by oversaturation.

Yes, I have seen several of those now. Is the stripe at 7 o'clock oversaturation as well?

Sorry, I don't see a stripe at 7,so it probably is just noise ! 😃
