Galaxy Zoo Talk
From the picture it looks this galaxy is very far yet the nucleus is exceedingly bright. A quasar or other type of active galactic nucleus?
Beautiful, almost perfect energetic star formation ring righ around the disk.
I see a faint suggestion of a central bar.
The galactic nucleus is extremely bright and I wonder if this might be a Seyfert (although I see no spiral structure) or even a quasar.
I would say a tight spiral with a definite and rather regularly spaced series of blue star forming region in what I think is the outer arm.
