Blue object

    A light blue object is visible around 2:00 on or under the spiral arm? It is difficult to tell if it part of the galaxy or simply in the neighborhood of the galaxy.

    Hi rbarkman_ and welcome to the Zoo

    The light blue blob could be a star forming area in the galaxy, but it is probably a foreground star from our galaxy.

    Happy hunting ! 😄
