What type of galaxy is this?

    It looks like it has a ring and two spiral arms, but I am not really sure. Could anyone clarify this for me? Thanks

    Hi DemarcS and welcome to the Zoo

    The 'ring' is just the two arms folding back to make a ring. The technical term is a ringed galaxy.

    happy hunting ! 😄
