Galaxy Zoo Talk
Foreground star is cool. I assume it's not actually resolved, but out of focus somehow?
One with the works.
Irregular, I think.
Lovely overlap with ring galaxy.
Possible faint satellite trail.
#fatcat
wow. just wow
Let's dance...
I thought it was merger because of the odd shape of the central galaxy.
#merger
crazy mess! #irregular? nebula?
#bluespiral. This is the second one i've seen with blue spiral arms.
Really more a partial ring than a full ring. Of starforming regions.
Possible merger. Possible overlap. Hard to to tell.
Looooong.
Woww. Irregular irregular.
Lovely pair. No merger.
unsure
#fatcat megafatcat.
pretty darn disturbed. It's got to be a merger, but I can't see the second galaxy. Perhaps merge_d_?
Very extended.
Crazy stuff.
Blue spiral arms make one imagine they are arcs of star forming regions. Really pretty.
Highly irregular. And/or disturbed.
Sat trail. But, it's not an unbroken line. What would do that? Some kind of glint?
Crazy dust lanes.
Starsword.
The center galaxy looks disturbed to me, which makes me wonder if there is a near-merger going on. Either way, fantastic.
Merger
Nice sharp dust lane.
Hard to tell if merger or overlap. I lean towards overlap.
Long arm with star-forming regions.
#fatcat. Possible merger or interaction. Possible lens effect for galaxy at 1 o'clock.
"UV Excess galaxy" http://ned.ipac.caltech.edu/cgi-bin/ex_refcode?refcode=2003PNAOJ...7...37M
The blue center is different.
highly disturbed.
overlap
Eye of Sauron.
The 4 features near 12 o'Clock. COuld those be #lens effects?
Blue, with 10 o'clock streamer. Past interaction remnant?
#spaceghost. oooooOOOOoooo
Distorted arms/tails from interaction.
Foreground star in front of circular galaxy at low res.
Way more to this story than what's in the frame!
Looks like a possible merger.
Strange mottling. Could be star forming regions and dusct clouds. Could be artifacts.
Satellite track
spin me round like a record. I can't see a spiral there, so I picked #ring, demarcated by dust.
I'd call that a small ring inside the spiral arms.
looks like a lens effect but too low res to be sure.
Quite grand.
Tiny galactic center.
Looks like ot could be a merger, but too low-res to see if the two galaxies are actually interacting.
Fantastic overlap. Center galaxy appears to be in foreground, but the two do not appear to be interacting at all.
Highly disturbed merger.
Small dust lane, and pretty sapphire star-formers.
Crazy*ss disruption. Stars spraying everywhere!
irregular, but it's not clear if it's a merger. I'd wager not.
Galaxy looks somewhat disturbed, but I don't think it is interacting with the larger galaxy to the left.
Type "Boxy" edg- on.
Fat cat elliptical.
irregular.
Several overlaped stars. Edge of field. Can only make out 1 spiral arm.
Looks almost like 2 rings - 1 'standard' and one of blue star-forming regions.
Nice ring!
I don't think it's a merger, just a superposition.
#Blue center! could be local foreground star.
Great spiral with starforming regions.
Satellite trail right through the galactic center. Looks like someone lasered the galaxy. Peeeeeeow!
Overlap. Exclamation point.
looks like a possible merger. And satellite track.
I think it's a superposition rather than a merger.
#disturbed old spiral
Very odd. Not in NED. Could be artifact.
Barely the start of a spiral
#spiral matured almost into #ring.
It's not a spiral, not a ring, not a bar. But two 'lobes' or arcs of a ring, at 11 and 5 o'clock.
This is such a tease. Thanks to @lovermann for the full image.
Single spiral. Nice star-formation areas.
#merger. Galactic car wreck.
Gorgeous barred spiral on edge of field.
More like "merged" than "merger". Also: #spacemonster
I think it looks a bit disturbed. Galactic center color is unusual.
multiple interacting clusters/ellipticals.
Galactic train.
Yes! A shark. That's what I came to say.
So. Is this just an irregular? A small nebula?
Lovely 2-arm barred spiral.
Possible thick-ish #ring. Possible that the spiral is defined by dust lanes rather than gaps.
Long elliptical wearing an edge-on spiral as a hat. Not quite overlap.
possibly partial ring, or tattered arm sections.
possible #merger. Too fuzzy to be sure.
Ring. Foreground star near center. background galaxy at 6 o'clock on the ring.
Three foreground stars obscure the disk.
Square
Galactic center is blue. Could be co-incidental starforming region.
Is there a difference between "merger" and "interacting"?
Faint satellite streak.
#merger or #overlap
#merger or #overlap. Probably the latter.
Almost edge on, but not quite.
Elliptical with star-forming ring deep inside.
Giant really obscures the elliptical. I misclassified.
This is either a tight merger or a dust lane across the core.
I call it a merger.
Partial ring or a lensing effect.
Gorgeous.
Very disturbed. Long, faint tail or arm coming out of 7 o'clock and heading left. Don't see how it's a merger.
Disturbed. Paisley galaxy.
Irregular.
Several much more distant galaxies in frame as well.
Possible merger, but not sure.
A few star forming regions. I think a dust lane, no clear bulge. Spiral, but I can't tell what kind.
Very disrupted looking. Aftermath of collision?
A whole gathering of galaxies.
Looks like a jet extending from 4 o'clock.
Merger or near overlap with small cluster at 6 o'clock.
Edge on with dust lane, but pretty elliptical. Possible merger or overlap.
irregular. Could there be a #merger happening here?
Serious merger/collision?
I would almost say the two small ones at 3 and 5 o'clock are proximate globular clusters. Or far background galaxies.
Irregular? Disturbed?
What a tease at the edge of the field.
Trifecta: Bar, Ring, Spiral
Close #Asteroid?
I think the automation picked the foreground star mistaking it to be a galactic center.
#merger at the very least.
Yeah. I misclassified it because I was dazzled by the dust lane. I suppose there's no way to go back and edit your classification?
Hard to tell from this image if it's a spiral or a messy edge-on.
Very disturbed. Possible merger (s).
I pegged this as more than 4 arms, but am not sure.
Looks like a ring. Even multiples.
Merger/disruption
Gorgeous barred spiral with star forming regions.
Either Merger or Overlap.
One, or even two satellite tracks cross the scene.
Satellite Streak, but a lovely barred spiral.
Almost a merger - almost looks like a train of three.
Almost edge on, but slight spiral turn to the arms.
Messy spiral. Does the blue mean the arms are full of star-forming regions?
Merger - Triple?
Multi-armed spiral - more than 2, but I can't tell how many.
#irregular core region.
Partial view of "Giant", outer partial ring full of star forming regions (if that's what the blue is)
Could be two burry stars next to each other.
Artifacts, and stars, but perhaps also a piece of something really cool.
irregular with star forming region(s). I couldn't really make out any arms.
Either foreground star/cluster or something odd at about 9 o'clock.
Irregular or disturbed. Central bulge has perhaps multiple bright spots.
Pretty fuzzy, but it really looks like a merger/interacting galaxies.
merger
Big bar, faint arms, foreground stars.
Blue Banana Galaxy. 😃
Cant tell if the split in the arm at 6 o'clock is due to dust lane or a separate arm.
Quite beautiful. Is the spot right next to the core at about 5 o'clock a foreground star?
No idea, really. I'd guess it was stars.
Gorgeous. Spiral arms look like they form a ring around the center.
#irregular Quite.
Extremely faint.
really fuzzy. Perhaps over-interpreted.
neighbor galaxy between 2 and 3 o'clock.
Hard to tell if there's an 'arm' coming out at about 2-3 o'clock toward another body. Can't tell if the companion is a foreground star.
Just the barest hint of a spiral. Perhaps that's an over-interpretation, though.
Blobs like this are a pain. Not sure what to make of them at all.
Tiny.
My guess is that there's a much more distant edge-on galaxy "behind" 11 o'clock of the spiral.
Those blue dots are often pegged as star-forming regions in more well defined galaxies.
Certainly proximity, though hard to tell if they're interacting. Left has dust lanes, right a more clear spiral.
double bulge?
It's an L! But yes, I suppose a merger makes the most sense.
Lovely messy thing.
Multiple arms, and perhaps dust lanes, but the frame cuts off the galactic center.
Very messy region.
If the blue features are star forming regions it has them.
#Barred spiral with inner tight spiral. Because I don't think it's a ring.
I agree with ekristia.
#Irregular, spiral with diffuse surrounding.
Looks like a double arm spiral, but the arms are pretty #irregular.
Agree with deano. Almost looks like a jet.
Two arm spiral, but what's happening in the south? Dust lane? #smudgedspiral
Is this two galaxies next to each other or a galactic duck? #spaceduck
Circular galaxy with bright center. #bullseye?
Foreground star is cool. I assume it's not actually resolved, but out of focus somehow?

Irregular, I think.
Lovely overlap with ring galaxy.
Possible faint satellite trail.
