what about this "flower galaxy" with "rays" going out on the sides? it can`t be spiral arms, is it just an artifact?

What object are you referring to ? I don't see any rays anywhere.

it is not exactly rays, more like little spikes on the sides, maybe it is just the effect of the resolution of the image

if you are talking about the two orange objects : these two are foreground stars from our galaxy. The spikes are optical artifacts.
if you are talking about the central object : these 'spikes' are just background noise.Posted
