central cluster image

  • Beardyman by Beardyman

    The central cluster image seems to be somewhat irregular at the bottom left looks like three or four arms protruding out very hazy I've never seen and anomaly as this one ...Am I correct in that assumption...? the more I look at it the more hazy arm like images I can see protruding with a spiral like arm at the top...any comments...?

    Hi Beardyman and welcome to the Zoo

    The central object is a a barred spiral galaxy. It looks a bit disturbed. And it is a very fuzzy image.

    happy hunting ! 😄
