    I don't know if its my mind playing tricks on me, but it looks like this one is bent in half like a wet pretzel folded on a pencil...perhaps due to interaction with the galaxy to the SW?

    Could be - certainly looks like we have some tidal streams between the two. Redshift is quite similar z=0.85 and z=0.84 respectively.

    We might just have to wait a few million years to tell!
