    hi, please see picture, when being asked about whether its a blob or a disc etc. are they referring to the one in the middle? in this case there are many stars in the picture. the bright star in the middle bottom of the picture when inverted is stunning - has red (assume that means heat? my questions are 1. am i judging the star in the middle or the whole picture? 2. Any thoughts on the mid bottom star?
    Thanks

    Hello again,

    Only classify the object at the center - disregard all the other objects, unless you think they may be interacting with the central object.

    In this case, it looks like we have a smooth, round (elliptical) galaxy at the center. Nothing odd.

    Hope this helps, but if you have any other question, please ask 😄

    Capella.
