Which type of galaxy is this?

• by cottonstar

  I know this is a spiral galaxy but some people put it into the other list, but why is that? Yes I am new here but this really looks like a spiral galaxy and all the things I learn about astronomy leads me to my final answer.

  Hi cottonstar,

  Yes , this is probably a spiral galaxy. But I can understand that people would classify this one as smooth as the image is very fuzzy.
  So there not many features visible.
