Strange light

    I just started classifying but this looked strange to me. Does anyone know what that green orb could be?

    Hi Karl_3 and welcome to the Zoo

    First of all, please, always classify the object inthe centre of the image (evenif it is the most boring one ! 😉 )

    And the bright object at the right is an overexposed foreground star from our galaxy. The colours are just artifacts caused by oversaturation.

    Happy hunting ! 😄
