Zoomed out a bit it appears to be another galaxy seen edge on, possibly further back, but that's just a guess on my part.

Sky View inverted - object should be at 5 o' clock,and there probably is an object at that position.

Not sure but it could be another galaxy seen edge on. NED only shows the one object cataloged, but zoomed out a little, it

Faint debris field extends away from disc at 8 o'clock. Several spots within disc appear to be artifacts.

Any idea what that long object is? Overlap? Jet ?

Photoz of streak is 0.347 so much further away than target galaxy with photoz of 0.060, if photoz is correct.

If you ignore the red dots you are left with a small object.
