Galaxy Zoo Talk

It seems irregular.

    From this angle it can be seen as a disk seen from its edge, but it does not look homogeneous. The upper side of the disk seems a bit disconnected compared to the bottom side. Is this normal?

    Hi shadyradwan and welcome to the Zoo

    Disk or spiral galaxy seen edge on is the correct cassification. And this one looks a bit disturbed, caused by interaction with another galaxy.

    Happy hunting ! 😄
