merging

    At the question "Is the galaxy currently merging or is there any sign of tidal debris?" I selected "both"... Am I wrong?

    Hi Sfolzer and welcome to the Zoo

    Actually, the galaxy you are supposed to classify is the one in the center of the image. So in this case, I would just go for : far too fuzzy to tell. As for the the other galaxies, I don't see any merging going on. No distortions whatsoever !

    Thanks for the reply
    I was looking in the center of the image! This is maybe the olnly one thing I've really understood!! 😉 So the correct choice in this case was... "neither" I guess.
    I'll keep trying to do my best!
