Hardest galaxy to classify I've seen in a while... it looks exactly like a star.

Not round enough for a star, I think. Looks featureless and blue/starforming. #blue_elliptical ? Interesting purplish colour on one side.

Definitely a galaxy. The odd colouring to the left could be an optical artifact.
