The central object is an elliptical galaxy (not a star). To the right is a very disturbed galaxy. I'm thinking #merger in progress

Stars have a more distinct edge. Smooth galaxies have a fuzzy edge. Note the star at the bottom, with a more distinct edge.

Nothing to be sorry about. We (at least I) were newbies once !
Just look at a lot of images and ask a lot of questions 😃
Happy Hunting !
