  A nice chance alignment of three stars from our galaxy.
  The two other objects are also stars.

  Almost like a miniature Orions belt. 😃

  It'll be because the three of them are close together that they've fooled the computer into thinking it's an extended object (a galaxy). Nice example of where humans can spot the problem immediately!
