Merger?

• by Admino

  Hi ,

  I love this one too.. it look a bit like a star in its nest.
  However, this galaxy, even though looking symmetrical could be a merger. Is this possible?
  I wonder about the arms that seem to go in different directions...
  thanks

  Hi again !
  I'd classify this one as a disturbed barred spiral.

  Happy hunting !
