  If you click through to SkyServer from the examine page and zoom out on the image, it turns out to be an artifact from a nearby star.

  To clarify: Vladutz and I are talking about two different things (the bar is perpendicular to the star's diffraction spike).

  Also: #AGN

  I'm not sure how to read the SkyServer >_< (lol it looks like another language) -could it be a Quasar?

  On closer examination the spike extends above and below the bar. Is there an explanation for that?
