Galaxy Zoo Talk
This galaxy appears to be interacting gravitationally with another galaxy, given the faint, extended arms, and a nearby galaxy.
and to my layman brain, it should have existed in similar conditions (temperature, density) to those that galaxies near us exist in.
The observed redshift corresponds to a distance of about 2 billion light years,so cosmologically, it is not that old,
The questions is Where did the gas come from? If it is indeed a young elliptical galaxy, then it could not have formedviastructuralformation
Uncentered bulge and a spectrum that suggests rapid star formation suggests that this may be a young elliptical galaxy, similar to ngc1510.
#resonance
Are these foreground stars?
Did this spiral pass through another galaxy? It is disturbed, however it shows no tidal debris.
This galaxy appears to be young, due to the high brightness in the infrared.
#Spiral
#Giant_Elliptical
It does not show up in ultraviolet, which suggests that there are little to no young stars.
This galaxy becomes progressively brighter in lower wavelengths. This shows that it is population two. There is little star formation.
Does this galaxy have two cores? The thin of material surrounding it is another hint that it might be the result of a merger.
Does this galaxy have two cores? It is shaped that way, but doesn't show that in the raw data.
#collision
Are the loose spiral arms the product of tidal forces?
Tidle debris?
Is the bright core caused by a merger? #merger
What is the quadrangle of green dots. Are they an error? They show up in the j band.
Astigmatism. (See spectrum in Galaxy Zoo examine)
Astigmatism or galaxy?
What could have created the ark of material? A merger? It shows up very strongly in the j band.
I agree. It looks like a barred spiral though.
The red "core" is visible in ultra violet, and the "cloud" is visible in red. It is most definitely a new star. In red it shows structure.
It doesn't even look like a galaxy. It looks like a gas bubble around a new star. Do you see the edge of a nebula on the left side?
The core is visible in ultra violet (Galaxy Zoo examine), which supports that it is the merger of two very active galaxies.
It looks like a lens, but is the galaxy massive enough? Excess dark matter would be necessary. It may be a lens of a quasar.
just ring - center "galaxy" is not massive enough for lens, wrong wavelengths, to fuzzy, to far away from center.
Yes, it is "just" a merger with tidal debris. Because it is a merger of two spiral galaxies, it looks "special."
Possibilities: Irregular-2 star formation lobes, collision, tidal debris
There are thee galaxies. Bottom: Ring, Left: edge on spiral, right, spiral
Is the bottom left barred spiral in the foreground?
Is the satellite a galaxy of globular cluster?
Is the lower right galaxy a merger or a lens?
These objects appear to be slightly over exposed, classifying them as stars, but there few background objects, and are clustered abnormally.
There is a bulge in the top right hand that shows up in i and z, and just visible in color. It is yellow though. Star forming or merger?
