possible merger?

  • tasguo by tasguo

    Do I classify this as a (possible) merger? I feel I would need a larger picture to be able to make out the object in the upper left corner... and than there are the slight blue traces in the foreground...

    Hi tasguo and welcome to the Zoo

    The blue smudges are star forming areas in the galaxies. So #merger is definitely a possibility.

    Happy hunting! 😄
