    Comments and thoughts welcome - what is happening here? Could be new star formation in the blue areas but what is exciting these regions to initiate star formation if that's what is happening?

    I would personally go with star formation for the blue bits. The rest is harder to define - late stage merger with the galaxy on right?

    Just my 2 cents worth 😃
