possible radiation from nucleus hitting some outlying region of the galaxy
OIII spectrum
seems to be a line connecting the two "peas"

Those look like star-forming regions; the "pea" seems to have Wolf-Rayet features around 4686 A, indicating age of a few Myrs. Core and blobs have very different star-forming histories, based on continuum vs line intensity; the outer blobs may form and be replaced quickly as the bar rotates. NGC 5430 has something similar on one side of its bar: http://skyserver.sdss3.org/dr10/en/tools/explore/summary.aspx?id=0x112d091640950095&spec=0x0c4c0dc910006800&apid=
The symmetry in this galaxy, though, is impressive.Posted

So not the correct colour to be a voorwerpje, like this one is
