"Prism" Galaxy

by JoachimW84
My first couple of objects here, found this website through Brady Harans videos on youtube and I just love it.
Anyways, this one looks funky. I think it could be a galaxy edge on but the colours are weird. Why would you have red on top of the disk and green on the bottom?
I lack a higher physical education, so this could be nothing here but as a layman I am quite interested in the topic and I think it might be something that is worth dissecting.

Hi JoachimW84 and welcome to the Zoo
You are correct : it is a disk or spiral galaxy seen edge on. But the colors are not real. Looks like a misalignment of the filters.
Glad you like it here !😄
happy hunting !
